Lillian is hosting Monday Quadrille at D’Verse Poets and has prompted us with “Silly”. Thank you Lillian for helping lighten up my somewhat moody poem to fit tonight’s challenge!
A Quadrille is a poem of exactly 44 words, excluding the title
The pattern I see is pleasing and some variations in color attractive to the eye But do I trust my judgement accepting a gift that stirs emotions without understanding why For a leopard cannot change its spots No matter how hard It might try
Clouds fill the sky darkening the days A somber mood covers the earth in a blanket of disdain No animal makes a sound nor a bird does sing The oceans are on raging fire marking earth with a blood stain
Marriage saved from extinction after weeks of not understanding the distinction between two people with opposing views Hurting each other beyond belief the other must choose Anger escalating blinded with rage until the coin drops in the slot and no more war to wage
