I enjoyed reading your Trinet poem and I rate it 10 stars. I ran out of 6, but it is 10 stars by far. Your thoughts are beautifully expressed and your poem demanded my attention from beginning to end. It was well received and I agree with your every emotion. Best wishes

A Trinet Poem
World Sleeps

Hello my friend

A fine entry for the Trinet Poetry writing prompt contest. The coronavirus and the sense of being trapped at home is something we can all relate to. Well done.

It does appear that the world sleeps. The air quality is better in many places right now because of the inactivity. I think that animals are roaming closer to and into cities because of the inactivity and silence. I like the message conveyed in this and enjoyed reading this well written work. Well done!

The pandemic has certainly changed the way people think and react nowadays. There is now too much on what you cannot do, and what you must do to survive. Good poem!

So this is called a trinet!. It looks not very simple, but indeed fun to try your hand. I must try one myself someday.
You did a very good job. Used an actual theme which worked very well with this special form. The two short lines, followed by two long ones, and then three short. Repeated in three couplets. Interesting!

I liked it.

This is a dramatic piece, describing these trying and unusual times. I appreciate the brevity of words including images and thoughts which convey much more. I also like the illustration choice.

She may seem asleep, but the restless is growing 'neath the covers... ;) :) Thanx so much for such a masterfully written Trinet -- the rhyme and the shape make for a lovely offering that will be hard to beat!! ;) Best of luck at the polls! ;)

Kahpot,
I really like your trinet poem.
Your rhyme flows; and, I like your poem's sound strength the end of each stanza.
Excellent poem and photo.
Good luck in the contest.
Best wishes, Cindy

This Trinet is a solid entry in this contest. Your first stanza describes succinctly the status of most of us because of Corona; stanza two describes how we cope while stanza three focuses on our hopes for the future. Although I find the rhyming heavy-handed, I like the content a lot. Rod

A very well-written Trinet and summary of our current situation of isolation where we may only go out of our homes to buy the absolute necessary items like food and medication.
