A LyriCat Sonnet

A chapter in the book Little Poems

Baby News

by Treischel



Granddaughter Nicole,
makes me, I gather,
when she takes on mother role,
the great-grandfather.

Putting a new living soul
on family tree,
when she takes on mother role,
related to me.

Let all the hilltops extoll,
a precious new life,
when she takes on mother role,
as Drew's happy wife.

I just heard the news.
Rejoicing ensues.





Recognized


My granddaughter, Nicole, got married to Drew about 2 years ago, and moved off from Minnesota to Baltimore, to be with him. I just recently received a text from her mother, Jodi, that she is pregnant. She sent out the typical ultrasound image with the announcement. That will make me a great-grandpa. This is a picture of Nicci with her mom.

This Poem is a LyriCat Sonnet,
I must give great credit to Pantygynt, a fellow Fanstorian, for creating a Sonnet version of I'm a Cat's new Lyricat format. Creative juices are really flowing on the site these days.
The LyriCat Sonnet creates three Quatrains with a repeating line, and a couplet. it minicks the 7-5-9 meter of the LyriCat with the following meter structure:
7/5/9/5 - 7/5/9/5 - 7/5/9/5 - 5/5.
The rhyme scheme is:
abAb acAc adAd ee,
where the A represents the repeated line. Volta on line 9.

This picture is from my daughter, Jodi's photographs.
