Leaving cray
Root stillness settles
Upon me
A new way
To live these days; new stories
Unfolding with grace
The Shadorma is a Spanish poetic form made up of a stanza of six lines (sestet) with no set rhyme scheme. It is a syllabic poem with a meter of 3/5/3/3/7/5. It can have many stanzas, as long as each follows the meter.
With thanks to Zev for the prompt and Kathy Jacobs for the project!
