Prayer~Clarity Pyramid

by Poet on the Piano   Jun 14, 2009


----------------------PRAYER
----------------------Saving
---------------------Restoring

--------------Found in many hearts
--------------Releasing nourishment
-----------to those who thirst for justice

--------"Guiding the way of God's people"

-----------------------------------------

A Clarity Pyramid consists of two triplets and a single line, making seven lines total. Usually, this poem is center aligned when displayed.

The first triplet has 1, 2, and 3 syllables. The title of the poem is the one-syllable word of the first triplet, which is displayed in all capital letters. This line is followed by a two-syllable line, and then a three-syllable line, both of which clarify the definition of the poem, or are synonyms for the title.

The second triplet has 5, 6, and 7 syllables. Its design is based around a life event contained within the triplet which helps give a poetic view outlook on the first line, which is the title.

The last line is 8 syllables, and is in quotations as this line contains a quote that defines the first word.
