My poem today follows the prompt given by Elsie of Ramblingsofawriter for her Weekly Poetry Challenge#80. The prompt words are “nature” and “peace”. She has also suggested a few other poetry forms. I have tried a new form today, called Triolet Poetry. Triolet Poetry is a poem of fixed rhythmical form, with repeated lines. It is made up of eight lines with a set rhyming scheme as shown below:
Here’s my take:
How wondrous are the ways of nature Its silent beauty an element of admiration Beholding in awe even its Creator How wondrous are the ways of nature Its serenity mesmerizes every spectator Instilling peace and illumination How wondrous are the ways of nature Its silent beauty an element of admiration
Well done Vandana. The nature and it’s beauty are truly wonderous!!
Thanks dear Radhika! I am glad you liked it. Nature is quite dear to all of us, isn’t it? Have a great day!

Inspired! In fact, I just uploaded a ‘Triolet’ of my own onto my blog. It’s linked below. I’d love it if you would have a look over it and leave me some tips on how to improve. I’m sure I could learn a lot from you. I hope you like it!
