A Quiet Solace

by Sugarray77

Write a Kyrielle Contest Winner 
When worries cause a harried day
and little things get in my way,
I need a place where sunlight shines...
where time is slow and life reclines
 
When solace is a burning need~
a quiet spot, a book to read;
I rusticate beneath old pines...
where time is slow and life reclines
 
Reposing under shady trees
where breezes rustle canopies;
my body, spirit, soul aligns...
where time is slow and life reclines
 
 


Writing Prompt
A kyrielle is made of quatrains (four lines) that rhyme (any rhyme scheme can be used). Each stanza (quatrain) has a line that repeats from the previous stanza. That line is usually the last line in the stanza, but it does not have to be. Each line is made up of eight syllables. There is no limit to the number of stanzas. A Kyrielle is usually made up of three or more stanzas. For this prompt, a minimum of three stanzas is required.
