NaPoWriMo Day 4
Today’s prompt is also from the NaPoWriMo website, and is to write a triolet. Here’s one from the point of a view of a fairy tale figure who doesn’t get much page time as herself:
Grandmother
When she arrived, I found myself reborn:
a fierce wee thing, and ready for the fight.
She’d treat my warnings, fears for her, with scorn;
when she arrived, I found myself reborn.
Each childhood scrape, I felt it like a thorn –
Oh Red, the world has teeth, and it can bite!
When she arrived, I found myself. Reborn.
A fierce wee thing, and ready for the fight.
