Day 12:
Sge:no
It is a beautiful day to bring together such beautiful minds.
Let us greet and be grateful for sustenance from earth.
Let us greet and be grateful for the sacred song of water.
Let us greet and be grateful for helping hands from heaven.
Let us greet and be grateful for sustenance from the earth,
Nya:weh plants, medicines, trees, animals, and well-being she grows.
Let gratitude ever shine in our hearts and in our minds.
Let us greet and be grateful for the sacred song of water
Nya:weh rain, streams, rivers, ponds, lakes, and wells lending life.
Let gratitude ever shine in our hearts and in our minds.
Let us greet and be grateful for helping hands from heaven.
Nya:weh Winds, Thunderers, Sun, Moon, Stars, and Spirits beyond time.
Let gratitude ever shine in our hearts and in our minds.
ABOUT THIS POETRY FORM
Trimeric poetry was invented by Charles A. Stone.
It is a thirteen line poem.
It is 4 stanzas.
The first stanza has 4 lines
The other three have 3 lines each
The first line of each of the three stanzas repeats the corresponding line of the first stanza.
There are no rules for length, rhyme, etc.
The layout of this poem automatically made me think of Ganohonyohk (Thanksgiving Address).
