NaPoWriMo–Day 18– “prompt, which takes us from 2015 back to the 1700s. After all, it’s the eighteenth of April, which means that today is the 240th anniversary of the midnight ride of Paul Revere! Today, in keeping with the theme of rush and warning, I challenge you to write a poem that involves an urgent journey and an important message. It could historical, mythical, entirely fictional, or memoir-ical.”

This Triolet is my take on today’s NaPoWriMo prompt!  Can anyone relate? 🙂

Admonition

Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.
Stay within your newly found locus.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Don’t listen to all their hocus.
Remember when tempted, the hard battle that you fought.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.
