My Legacy

( Espinela Form )



Caught in time's never ending race
Life is short and fleeting at best
Given not a moment to rest
Worry, Hurry, a hectic pace

My bright smile a bit out of place
Knowing a secret I have found
Leaving my soul free and unbound
One simple truth I can't deny
If and when all else goes awry
My legacy is not profound

All I leave behind are these words :
I've raced the wind and touched the sky

Espinela:

A poem of ten eight syllable lines, composed as a quatrain
followed by a sestet with the pause between the stanzas.
Espinelas follow the rhyme scheme:
a/b/b/a
a/c/c/d//d/c
The espinela is occasionally augmented by two lines rhyming
e/d.
