Believe~OctPoWriMo Day 16

A New Day

Every dawn I see brings hope anew

Every dawn I see brings hope anew

The rise of the brightly golden orb

The rise of the brightly golden orb

The rise of every hope anew I see

The golden orb brings the dawn

~

Gently rising from the sea

Gently rising from the sea

Establishes a peace within

Establishes a peace within

The sea from within rising

A peace establishes gently

~

Waves tenderly kiss the shore

Waves tenderly kiss the shore

Awakening my soul this day

Awakening my soul this day

The tenderly awakening shore

Waves kiss my soul this day

~

The waves dawn anew this day

Every shore brightly brings hope

Establishing a golden rising of the orb

Gently the peace within the sea

Awakening the kiss tenderly I see

The Prompt:

“I’m all about structure this week, weirdddd. Anyways, paradelles are some of my favorites, it’s a really nice challenge! They were invented to be a parody (hence the name) to villanelles by US Poet Laureate Billy Collins. There, that’s your history lesson for the day!

For all the structure lovers in the house, you’re going to LOVE this!

You’ve got four stanzas of six lines each.”~Beverly Tan
