A Villanelle with Initiative


"A Villanelle with Initiative" Look at the rising sun, Kissing the earth with rays, Who will I be when it’s done? Calm and pure as a nun, Mature beyond my days, Look at the rising sun. Feel the wind- feel it run, Such a beautiful phrase, Who will I be when it’s done? Proud and bold- like I’ve won, Pushed through despite the weight, Look at the rising sun. Quick and strong as a gun, My voice flows- never strays, Who will I be when it’s done? Today’s the day- I’m the one, Unleash my wisdom’s blaze, Look at the rising sun, Who will I be when it’s done?
