Saturday Mix – Lucky Dip, 11 July 2020

Welcome to the Saturday Mix – Lucky Dip, 11 July 2020!

For this week’s Lucky Dip, I have reached into my mystery bag and pulled out a Triquint. The topic is up to you!

You may be thinking to yourself, What on earth is a Triquint?

Luckily, Shadow Poetry has an explanation…

Triquint

Triquint, a poem for created by Sylvia A. Feeley, which consists of 3 verses, 5 lines each. Lines 3 and 4 of verse 1 (Refrain) repeat in verses 2 and 3. The syllable count for each stanza is 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 and has an aaAAb rhyme scheme.

Example of a Triquint 

Heartache

Words written in verses, they appeal.
Sung about in songs you feel.
Heartache, all to real.
Ne’er ideal.
Hears.

Emotions which are hard to conceal.
Feelings that are so surreal.
Heartache, all to real.
Ne’er ideal.
Tears.

Beliefs that if you were to reveal,
would cause pain too hard to heal.
Heartache, all to real.
Ne’er ideal.
Fears.
