Work hard enough !

Ok, I know the topic is a little misleading, because it sounds like a piece of advice.

But it is nothing of that sort. Just a little idea, which I thought of converting to a Septolet. This is the second one I'm posting in the span of this UBC , the first being this.

A diamond is a piece of carbon that stuck to its job long enough to get transformed, isn't it ? So here's a Septolet for the idea.

You’re a diamond,
whose shine
mesmerizes me

Nothing special
just carbon
that worked hard !

:-P

A Septolet - Love !!


My research into the different poetic forms continues.

After the Diamante, Nonet, Cinquain and Etheree, here comes a Septolet.

A Septolet is a poetic form where the poem consists of seven lines, made up of fourteen words, with a break in between, which divides the poem into two distinct parts. Both the parts deal with the same thought or idea, and create a picture for the reader.

My septolet here is on Love...

You’re the sky
I’m
the earth

the rain
of your love
quenches
my thirst !


That  takes the UBC post count to 17 ;-)
