This Month Kat Myrman has suggested a new theme for the daily poem—the Terza Rima, writing one stanza each day.
A terza rima consists of stanzas of three lines (or tercets) usually in iambic pentameter. It follows an interlocking rhyming scheme, or chain rhyme. This is where the middle of each stanza rhymes with the first and last line of the following stanza. There is no set length to this form, as long as it follows
I shall be joining Kat Myrman and Jane Dougherty in this challenge.
Life… A Terza Rima,
Two more babes refused to stay I was thin and depressed
Hubby worked away I was so alone
Then another baby on the way we moved away from the west.

Wow..this sounds so very familiar. When I started out had for babes under the age of 4 (the last two twins…and my husband at the time was out to sea, in the navy, 9 months at a time…after 8 years of this he found an unencumbered woman to bed down with and left me and the kids on our own. (Huge blessing in disguise 😉)

Well Kat blessings often come in disguise. I am glad it worked well for you . I lost my first babe, then had a boy who nearly died at birth, then I lost twin girls, then fell for another boy. My husband was moved from the west country to London and it took me ages to sell out bungalow, finally just after I fell for that second boy I escaped back to London, hubby and my mum . 💜💜

Seems we both had tumultuous youths. I, for one, have earned every grey hair, battle scar, stretch mark, and wrinkle! I almost said we but I’ll leave your list to you. ❤️❤️

Wow, I’m sorry for the losses you suffered! Glad you did end up with your three boys. You went through so much, though! ❤️❤️

We all go through a lot, it’s just life isn’t really. No one escapes we never really know what people’s lives are like. Thank you for caring Betty 💜💜

Yes, you’re right….we all have a story. Good things, bad things. Gives us character, as they say. 😊❤️
