The Sapphonic Triad
This form is an invention of our own Cliverde (Carol) and Pantygynt (Jim). The form is as follows: A two-line quotation (Free verse but the max total of sixteen syllables - must be concise and memorable) followed by a quatrain, four lines each of four syllables finally an 8-4-6 syllable envoi that moves us on somewhere...it should have a "satori" feeling. You can use rhyme if you want, as done here: "...pale flash not seen as slow you sink; rocked evermore at Heaven's brink." In bleak distress, rejected maid made her redress, her pen a blade. She wrote his lonely death at sea-- Inglorious! and scored her page with glee. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (or without rhyme) "O wind, if winter comes can spring be far behind?" Let us linger beneath these trees, yellow-gold and rose, this pewter sky. River tumbles in jade and bronze; riffles whisper-- O stay, stay! Won't you stay? Ciliverde Image courtesy of Google images free downloads ***Any grammar mistakes in the quote is directly copied from the Bible as it is written in my Bible. Some verses may go over the sixteen syllable limit but I will keep it to only two lines when possible. |

The Sapphonic Triad
This form is an invention of our own Cliverde (Carol) and Pantygynt (Jim). The form is as follows: A two-line quotation (Free verse but max total of sixteen syllables - must be concise and memorable) followed by a quatrain, four lines each of four syllables finally an 8-4-6 syllable envoi that moves us on somewhere...it should have a "satori" feeling. You can use rhyme if you want, as done here: *** I am using in some cases more than the prescribed sixteen syllables for clarity purposes from the Bible verses; I try to keep it only two lines where possible. I am using KJV of 1959. "...pale flash not seen as slow you sink; rocked evermore at Heaven's brink." In bleak distress, rejected maid made her redress, her pen a blade. She wrote his lonely death at sea-- Inglorious! and scored her page with glee. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (or without rhyme) "O wind, if winter comes can spring be far behind?" Let us linger beneath these trees, yellow-gold and rose, this pewter sky. River tumbles in jade and bronze; riffles whisper-- O stay, stay! Won't you stay? Ciliverde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "So the poor have no bread, then let them eat cake." The queen has lost her head. Freedom, equality, and brotherhood. But still poverty persisted. Time of terror. Long live the Republic. Pantygynt Image courtesy of Google images free downloads |

The Sapphonic Triad This form is an invention of our own Cliverde (Carol) and Pantygynt (Jim). The form is as follows: A two-line quotation (Free verse but the max total of sixteen syllables - must be concise and memorable) followed by a quatrain, four lines each of four syllables finally an 8-4-6 syllable envoi that moves us on somewhere...it should have a "satori" feeling. You can use rhyme if you want, as done here: *** I am using in some cases more than the prescribed sixteen syllables for clarity purposes from the Bible verses; I try to keep it only two lines where possible. I am using KJV of 1959. "...pale flash not seen as slow you sink; rocked evermore at Heaven's brink." In bleak distress, rejected maid made her redress, her pen a blade. She wrote his lonely death at sea-- Inglorious! and scored her page with glee. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (or without rhyme) "O wind, if winter comes can spring be far behind?" Let us linger beneath these trees, yellow-gold and rose, this pewter sky. River tumbles in jade and bronze; riffles whisper-- O stay, stay! Won't you stay? Ciliverde ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "So the poor have no bread, then let them eat cake." The queen has lost her head. Freedom, equality, and brotherhood. But still poverty persisted. Time of terror. Long live the Republic. Pantygynt Image courtesy of Google images free downloads |

The Sapphonic Triad This form is an invention of our own Cliverde (Carol) and Pantygynt (Jim). The form is as follows: A two-line quotation (Free verse but the max total of sixteen syllables - must be concise and memorable) followed by a quatrain, four lines each of four syllables finally an 8-4-6 syllable envoi that moves us on somewhere...it should have a "satori" feeling. You can use rhyme if you want, as done here: *** I am using in some cases more than the prescribed sixteen syllables for clarity purposes from the Bible verses; I try to keep it only two lines where possible.
