Closed Form Poetry If there is a definitive conclusion, and the poet decides to use a specific pattern, such as meter or rhyme, the form will take on what is known as closed form...

Flickering Flame (for Mike)

(Quatern)


The flickering flame in his eyes
Reminiscent of the good days
Unvarnished friendship lost to death
Only whiskey to bide his time

The tears don’t seem to terminate
The flickering flame in his eyes
He lost the one dearest to him
A companion, a confidante

The deep misery does not cease
And neither does the pain inside
The flickering flame in his eyes
Says more than words could ever tell

Destiny fulfilled, ‘tis the end
Nothing to undo his fortune
Everything is gone, all left is-
The flickering flame in his eyes

Re: CFPC#17 - Flickering Flame (for Mike)

This was really brilliant Nupur. Excellent work and the "terminates" still cracks me up.

Re: CFPC#17 - Flickering Flame (for Mike)

I love love love the way you wrapped this one up. It was perfectly done! Awww poor Mike, damn those bots will probably just keep me alive to spite him now! But back to your work, brilliantly done, you are really polishing your poetry!

Thanks Mike, and we all love you! And three poems for you, not two. See? We love you more than you think.

Thanks. Haha... that 'terminator' reference solved my problems with that line. Syllable count and the 't' to go with tears. Haha

Thank you, Bri! Personally I felt the ending was a little lame, but oh well...
