A Lover's Paradise (Triquatrain)

by Wallace   Jul 5, 2007


True love attained, Thy heart regained
Without a cost or price
Thy love bestowed, For thou abode
A lover's paradise

Thine eyes portray, My heart's dismay
What thy fate shall bring
Love's dreams awake, My mind partake
In what thy heart shall sing

It's e'er to say, thy heart shall prey
On thy unheeded soul
Thine eyes confound, My mind abound
Thy heart was made a whole

True love attained, Thy heart regained
Without a cost or price
Thy love bestowed, For thou abode
A lover's paradise

    You have a wonderful talent for formed poetry. You pulled this one of beautifully.

    I particularly liked how you repeated the first stanza as the last, I thought that made for a powerful effect on the overall piece.

    This was a beautiful write and an even greater read.
