Little Poems
: The Spot by Treischel

Just
take me to
that hidden glade

with a carpet
of
leaves and shade,

where
thoughts
flow free
and dreams are made.

Released
right here
beside this brook

with Autumn
everywhere
you look.

A cloak
along the path you took,

and
hanging clusters
in the trees

that r u s t l e
in the gentle
b-r-e-e-z-e

are
things
that set
the mind
at
e-a-s-e

and
make a most
ROMANTIC MOOD

where interuptions
won't
intrude.


It's there
I wish
to promise you

My heart
remains forever
TRUE.

Author Notes
This is a lovely brook that is located out at the Minnesota Arboretum. It looks like an excellent spot to make a proposal. Maybe on that bridge.

This poem is a Free Style Sonnet.
In a Free Style Sonnet, the text is laid out just like a Free Verse, except it has a rhyme scheme. Each stanza is like a line in the Sonnet, so there are 14 stanzas. They actually read as iambic tetrameter. The rhyme scheme is:
aaa bbb ccc ddd ee.
