It would be a wonderful planet if we could all embrace the words in your final couplet:
A life that has its only race
to make the world a better place.
Good advice from start to finish. Great job accepting the challenge.

This is a very interesting poem. I kind of had to look up what a potlatch poem was though. hahahaha. This poem could very easily win though if you entered it in a contest

Comment from Donka Kristeva
Beautiful! Filled with the energy of Spirit. The only race is ... "to make the world a better place". I like how you weave nature's harmonious rhythm with that of the soul.

Comment from Old Soldier
After reading this several times I had to research trilonnet. Then I read some of the reviews. Wanted to be fair with my review. One thing about some of the capitalization
Why a comma after knolls and then capitaliz but? And why did you cap out after things that will roll? Just trying to learn.

Thanks for the review. I generally capitalize the first word in each line. I didn't realize I didn't until you mentioned it. You were the first to do that.

That's what reviews are for helping each other. If you haven't give me a read.
Comment from Phillip C Kuhn
If only it was human nature to plant seeds of peace and love then people could focus on the important things in life rather than pointless hate, good job and thanks for sharing

Hello dragonpoet
I like your trilonnet potlatch post.
It's the first time that I have read a trilonnet poem, I like is and especially
Plant a seed
Of thought in kids that world abounds
With wonderful things that will roll
Out if you make the choice to lead .

Comment from Pearl Edwards
Nicely written trilonnet about the race through life, sometimes over craggy knolls sometimes on narrow paths but with the one goal in mind, to make the world a better place.
cheers

Comment from Jeffrey L. Michaux
I like this poem that talks about running races. You've covered all kinds of terrain going through life running your race in this poem. I like how you wrote this and how well you describe everything. Life and this race we're running is filled with twists and turns, ups and downs like you've penned so well. I enjoyed this Dragonpoet! Well done!

Comment from Dawn Munro
What a wonderful message in this poem, Joan. I've never written this poetry format, but I reviewed one earlier this week that gave the instructions in the author's notes, and this seems bang-on. I loved it!

Thanks for your kind comments and high rating. Glad you liked it. I had someone who said
it sounded forced.

If wonderful enjambment is "forced", then I guess it was. ROFL! Forced my Aunt Petunia. It was as smooth as silk.

Glad you refute this and think it is smooth.

IMHO (for what it's worth).
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written Trilonnet about nature around us that bring sounds to our ears with a message that we cannot ignore. We all try our very best to make the world a better place for all.
