Velvet Embrace(Trilinea)

Gossamer held
momentarily longed for rose
fulfilled eyes meld

Author notes

New form:

The Trilinea, one more haiku copycat from Berg’s Pathways, originated by Nellie Amos seems a bit superficial to me. The defining feature is, the word “rose” must appear somewhere in the 3 lines.

The Trilinea is:

1. lyrical.

2. syllabic, with syllable count per line, 4-8-4.

3. rhymed, L1 and L3 rhyme.

4. composed to include the word “rose”.

5. titled.

    Great write. I clicked on all three examples after I finished my contest entry to make sure I did it right. All seems well. I'll keepmy fingers crossed that you like it. I really liked your examples of the pieces. All of these were really good. I especially like the word usage in this piece. This is really good. Hope you do well in the contest. - cgirl0410

    Now this is another interesting form! What a great example you've penned of one too! It's hard to think along the lines of roses, as they've been soooo overly penned about. But you did it without sounding the least bit cliche!
