Today, is a new beginning
see beyond the shadowy
mists
our universe remains spinning
open your eyes to nature's gifts
Winter sings a blustery song
our universe remains spinning
open your eyes to nature's gifts
Winter sings a blustery song
our state of being seems
to drift
vigilant spirits remain strong
open your eyes to nature's gifts
Inside the womb of mother earth
vigilant spirits remain strong
open your eyes to nature's gifts
Inside the womb of mother earth
light will bring an energy
shift
spring brings promises of rebirth
open your eyes to nature's gift
spring brings promises of rebirth
open your eyes to nature's gift
Today, is a new beginning
open your eyes to nature's
gifts

A Kyrielle Sonnet consists of 14 lines (three rhyming quatrain stanzas and a non-rhyming couplet).
Each line consists of eight syllables. French poetry forms have a tendency to link back to the beginning
of the poem, using the first and last line of the first quatrain as the ending
couplet.
Rhyme scheme AabB, ccbB, ddbB, AB

Oh nature offers so many gifts, in season....love the idea of spring lying underground, waiting its turn. Am off to see some wild waves today, my friend, with a borrowd dog. It doesnt get much better!
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a wonderful day!
DeleteDespite the cold, spring will burst forth with new life again.
ReplyDeleteThat it will as winter invites us to quiet our mind and still our soul for a new awakening.

Thank you Melody
DeleteOpening my eyes (and heart) and inviting her magic in. Winter is cold and bright, today. My amaryllis just bloomed and there is a confused blue jay pecking at the window. I think Nature has been singing spring songs to winter's children. And we are loving it.
ReplyDeleteThe air was cold and crisp yet, there were blue skies and a sun trying to brighten up the day.
DeleteI love the optimism here, Truedessa. Today is a new beginning indeed. I try to be optimistic and hopeful about the possibility of positive change. Winter really does have a beautiful song, one we should appreciate as our earth continues to spin as it always has. Really glad to see you in the new year, Truedessa.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mary for the lovely comment. We must remain hopeful for the changes we need in our world.
DeleteSometimes, however, opening one's eyes is the most difficult task in the world.
ReplyDeleteThat is indeed true.
DeleteThe optimism here shines through. The song of nature, even in storms, is beyond beautiful. You did a nice job with the form!
ReplyDeleteThank you Toni, nature offers us amazing gifts.
DeleteMakes sense to me.

Lovely sonnet.
ReplyDeleteThank you Vicki
DeleteI enjoy the way the poem urges you to look outward and inward and feel the moment. Perfect with the image.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comment, I guess it comes down to perspective.
DeleteA compelling and mesmeric form upon which you have pinned beautiful lines. The repetitive line, in particular, is a triumph - both in its message and the notes that the words strike, spoken aloud. Lovely writing!
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy the repetition was part of the form. Thanks so much for your comment!
DeleteLove the hopeful theme for new beginnings. The ending couplet and repetition of the last lines stood out for me:
ReplyDeleteToday, is a new beginning
open your eyes to nature's gifts
Thanks Grace - I am hoping the new year will bring some new beginnings.
DeleteA lovely example of the Kyrielle Sonnet!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rosemary!
DeleteLove the easy flow of your lines and the theme making one aware about the blessings all around. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sumana - Nature offers us so much in our lives.
DeleteWinter has its own tune, not one I like, but each day can be new indeed and spring will soon fling on in.
ReplyDeleteSpring will be here soon but, first we need to embrace winter.
DeleteSorry...but I am enjoying Summer swimming every day. It is going too quickly.
ReplyDeleteI am jealous, summer is my favorite season. Enjoy Rall!
DeleteNice ending and good advice to open one's eyes to all the gifts around us.
ReplyDeleteHi Frank. I think we as humans need to recognize visual beauty even on a grey winter day.
DeleteI love this! Thank you Truedessa! Big Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThank you MLC - Big Hugs back!
DeleteI like the way your poem flowed. The idea that today is a new and special day that sees beyond where we are and into the future is very good.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dwight - Enjoy your new day!
