Waiting may be tiring,
but when we start thinking
of what is coming,
maybe we can start smiling?

Have a blessed Sunday, beloved friends!

Locked
Locked: A Romancillo*
I am steadily locked
no powers can break me,
even heroes will fail,
Mr. Right has the key.

The Romancillo* is a short line version of the Romance.
The Romancillo is:
- a narrative, it tells a story.
- stanzaic, written in even number line which could be quatrains, sixains, etc.
- syllabic, all lines are written in 5 or 6 syllables each.
- rhymed, only assonant rhyme is used, xaxa xbxb xcxc etc., x being unrhymed.
Shelved
Covered with clustered
webs and dust,
how many more years
do I have to trust,
–to cope
with hope,
–to wait
with faith,
before you finally
pick me,
read me,
know me,
choose me,
among the hearts
you shelved
inside
you.
