The triolet

When I saw what a triolet was I didn’t think it  would be very expressive or useful.But after writing a few I began to get a feel for it in this one below so I am really pleased with the form.The song-like quality appeals to me too.I have changed some of the lines so the copies are not exact.In this triolet, that fitted very well when I changed speaker to listener

As we loved

The honeyed  words invented as we loved
Now have no other  speaker but myself
Lost, unique, the husband, still beloved
The honeyed  words  invented  as we loved
From my  speech, our  words   must be removed.
I can  no longer  use  our words, our wealth.
The chosen  words  invented as we loved
Now have no other  listener but myself
