Ekphrastic Sapphonic Triad
A chapter in the book Interpretations For Consideration
And I Love You
by Debra White
"And the songbirds are singing like they know the score. And I love you..." Piano's song pulls my heart strings. I have always loved you, you know. As time tick tocks ever faster, we make the most of ev'ry day that dawns. |
Ekphrastic poetry - A description of a visual work of art, either real or imagined.
After reading Gloria's gorgeous Sapphonic Triad, 'Lily', (read it, if you haven't already!) I decided to attempt the form.
This form was created by FanStory's ciliverde and named by Pantygynt. It opens with a quote of two lines (approximately 16 syllables) is followed by a quatrain of four syllable lines and ends with a three line envoi - with an 8-4-6 syllable count. Credit the quote to its writer in your author notes.
Quote written by Christine McVie (Fleetwood Mac)
This is one of my favourite songs of all time. If you have the time, play the music video and give your ears a treat :)
