Well, thanks, I am encouraged by that. My opinion based on my singular attempt at Triolets, is that anyone writing these must begin with a simile that will work well when repeated in the various lines without making the entire scheme seem forced.This is not as easy to accomplish as I initially thought. However, that seems to be where so many poets falter in writing these and other fixed forms. I was impressed by how easy you and Leanne seem to make it appear even though, as I have implied, I know better. I may find others but I only found these forums today. It looks like I have some enjoyable reading ahead of me though.
