Life
from the
womb of a
confused woman
kicks her into the
realization that she
must deliver that which she
fears the most out of all creatures
and the lovely rose blossom pales with
the thought of the great journey awaiting
With a heavy heart and mind, Rose sets out
in bringing a life she never meant
to create into this cruel world
fearing the worst, yet loving
it against her own will
and all she stood for;
pretending to
hate it all
but does
not

3. Fantasy Writers. Your name has a first letter. Whether you use your actual name or the name I see here, it doesn't matter. Use that letter as the beginning letter of the star character. That letter can be its kin, its name or even its rank, but it must be something important to this character. Now, that character is required to do one last thing: Whatever you hate/fear the most. That's what they have to do.
NOW to explain the form.
This a double Etheree. It consists of twenty lines with a syllable count of: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

I'm not sure if you mean not wanting a child or the type of sadness in general, but thank you for your comment.
-
awww... its very, very pretty and extrememly well written, but it carries a sadness you dont commonly find in a work... excellent job, keep writing.

Rose had gotten over it by the time she ahd Kira, sissy. Darrin is the eldest, so it's basically the retelling of Obscure Fears, was it? You know, that story where Rose got pregnant that I wrote for a contest of yours. But anyway, yeah...Double Etherees have such a lovely form.
Thank you for your comment sis.

Rose bringing...Kira?...into the world.
You, Rose, seem to be an ever constant in my contests recently. I always enjoy your works! Anyway, a Double Etheree...I've never heard of those. Well, learn something new every day, I suppose. Good luck!
-
Oh! Oh! Oh! This is a Double Etheree. Very similar to a ricta meter, but the syllable count and line number is different. Thank you for the lovely somment though.
-
This is so pretty! And the rictameter helps with the feelings of Rose, at least, I think so. They style in which it's written also helps with the conflict of her feelings and I love it. Good luck in the contest.
-
I don't find it confusing at all, but I'm sorry about that. Thank you.
-
The form was confusing. >.< But I did like the poem. Best of luck in the contest, Rose.
