Husbands’ Pride

Gaze in the pool and see your disguise

Reflection in your hazel eyes

Man of power that you are

Minces your bitter scar

Masquerade the pain

Now it is bane

Life of pride

Hear your

Bride

A nonet has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second line eight syllables, the third line
seven syllables, etc... until line nine that finishes withone syllable. It can be on any subject and

    Great piece. I had seen this form before (though it was unlikely that the poem's I've seen were done this well) but did not know the name. I appreciate the fact that when I am looking to learn a new form I can simply stop by your page and pick one out, knowing I'll get an enjoyable, quality write in any form or style.

    Very nice Amera. How do you get this lined up like that? Do you just space over?

      Hi Laura,
      As a gold member I have the rich text option. There is a icon for left, center and right alignment.
