Blow a Kiss (Kyrielle Sonnet)

Walk off and blow a kiss to me,
keeping me guarded, safe and free.
Close my eyes, don't have to pretend,
I just love kisses in the wind.

Arms wrapped tight, feeling quite secure,
when with you, I'm innocent, pure.
You and I are the perfect blend,
I just love kisses in the wind.

When we touch, the feelings sublime,
need to be near you all the time.
With you I've found a lifelong friend,
I just love kisses in the wind.

Walk off and blow a kiss to me,
I just love kisses in the wind.

Author notes

Kyrielle Sonnet

A Kyrielle Sonnet consists of 14 lines (three rhyming quatrain stanzas and a non-rhyming couplet).
Just like the traditional Kyrielle poem, the Kyrielle Sonnet also has a repeating line or phrase as a
refrain (usually appearing as the last line of each stanza). Each line within the Kyrielle Sonnet
consists of only eight syllables. French poetry forms have a tendency to link back to the beginning
of the poem, so common practice is to use the first and last line of the first quatrain as the ending
couplet. This would also re-enforce the refrain within the poem. Therefore, a good rhyming scheme
for a Kyrielle Sonnet would be:

AabB, ccbB, ddbB, AB -or- AbaB, cbcB, dbdB, AB.
