Let The Light
A Terza Rima Poem: Thank You Calvin London
Introduction
I heard a line in a TV program that inspired this poem
I will use the terza rima poetry form that Calvin London showed me:
Here is the description:
A terza rima poem is an Italian form of poetry that consists of tercets that follow a chain rhyme in which the second line of each stanza rhymes with the first and last line of the subsequent stanza. It ends with a couplet rhyming with the middle line of the penultimate stanza. The pattern is ABA BCB CDC DED EE.
