Generations

  Time for Meeting the Bar in the dVerse Poets Pub ~ Laura's challenge is the Chaucerian Roundel ~

Three generations sketched, frozen in time

each of us different, like yang and like yin

each shaped by childhood, defined from within

Decades together, memories sublime

cooking and laughter, the yarns we would spin

Three generations sketched, frozen in time

each of us different, like yang and like yin

Three sisters left, the female paradigm

would we pass muster? I ask with a grin

how to say thank you, where would I begin

three generations sketched, frozen in time

each of us different, like yang and like yin

each shaped by childhood, defined from within
