Connection – A Quadrille

Find him, they said
I took the note bearing your name
Unpronounceable
I rose to the challenge
Suddenly there you were
Friendly, handsome
You knew my name too
Mesmerized
We discovered much in nano seconds
Then you were whisked away
Still holding my heartstrings

Lisa from TaoTalk is hosting Monday Quadrille at D’Verse. The prompt word tonight is ‘String’. It can be used as a verb, noun or adjective and be in the form of a Quadrille. A poem of exactly 44 words excluding the title.

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

  1. Love how you used the prompt word, Christine! And I’m intrigued by the word mesmerized; it could be a noun, as in your name, or a verb, as in hypnotized. It’s wonderful for the readers to have the ability to interpret what we feel from your beautiful quad. Very nicely write!

      1. You’re most welcome, Christine. And I hear ya! My husband’s always asking how I can write anything in 44 words. I don’t think he believed me when I told him one of the blogs I follow asked for a story in 23 words including the prompt word!

        Buonanotte!
