[stylist] Anoterh tumbling tercet but with an envoi

[Jacqueline Williams]

Myrna,
This is fantastic! I like your envoi as your title. It tells me where I am
going, where I have been, the readiness, and to the real beginning again.
It builds in intensity through your words and the structure, and the need to
write becomes a passion.
This is something I will try. Would you mind if I take your previous
explanation and this example of it to my class which will begin again in the
fall? Of course, you will be credited with the form as well as your writing.
Because many of our poets go for publication, it might possibly add to the
number of published poems using that form. 
I get the "Poem a Day series. Quite honestly, your poetry far surpasses much
of what I read on a daily basis.
I am thrilled with the fact that you share it all with us and thus that
wonderfully passionate part of yourself for writing.
Jackie

Here is the example I said I'd send.  It is in  email but I have also 
attached it. If you have trouble opening it  do let me know. This tumbling
tercet 
includes the envoi although it is  a very short envoi.  I do hope everyone 
enjoys the  read.

After The Ink Spills
 
In the stillness of an ordinary moment
Is heard a  whisper, an almost breathless
Miracle of words tumbling into 
 
An opened jar of ink, and I listen
With a heart in  need of their wisdom,
Their joy, their journeys, and  their
 
Love, and my hand, trembling with
Creativity's  anticipation, reaches for
The pen being held in the  arms
 
Of an empty palette, safely comforted
Until the  time is right, until the
Passion, the sweet voice of words, of painted 
 
Metaphor, is perfect.  I wait, barely  
Breathing, unsure of where I will be taken,
But willing to acquiesce, to  trust,
 
To believe in creativity's path, to 
Believe in the  art of writing, always 
Knowing that all will be revealed to  me
 
After the ink spills.
