Another day to craft a vivid Villanelle.
One that hopefully will take social media by flight.
A daily pursuit, leaving readers compelled.
*****
Will my audience be left in awe or in literacy hell?
My inky pen is not always guided by a white knight.
Another day to craft a vivid Villanelle.
*****
Claps, hearts, reads, comments, is the tell.
Did it land for my fellow friends who write?
A daily pursuit, leaving readers compelled.
*****
My poetic brain has visions of tumbleweeds, bidding farewell.
At a barren western ghost town, with no one in site.
Another day to craft a vivid Villanelle.
****
No shaped words of fears, blood-soaked hearts from mademoiselle.
Alas, no poignant death scene, with whispers to continue to fight.
A daily pursuit, leaving readers compelled.
****
My only desire is to pen words, spin stories and do it very well.
In the process of not sabotaging myself despite.
Another day to craft a vivid Villanelle.
A daily pursuit, leaving readers compelled.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

I don't think you've ever sabotaged yourself. This Villanelle was so brilliantly executed. I loved it!
This is perfect. These really are hard, aren't they?
Well done.
Wow, quite a word you are. I really enjoyed this.
