Inside these minds, lay words that can confide
By waves of imagination fly high;
reside there my friends, for others provide...
cry as creation spills forth smiles and sigh
Tonight's sight, lights invite
Author notes
Created by me: Terrion
The form itself is pretty much straight forward in the approach with its looks of a Monotetra, but this form has a double rhyme scheme, the first three lines are exactly ten syllables in count leaving the fourth line with an eight count(four syllables repeated in alternate phrasing).
Format:
Axxxxxxxxa
Bxxxxxxxxb
Axxxxxxxxa
Cxxx,Cxxc

What a clever form you created. Great write. Good luck in the contest!

What an innovative form. I will have to try it. I think there is a typo in your title, "Inspiration"?. I also think your capitalization was a little erratic. This being said, the work itself was well written and complex. Good luck in this contest. Peace, Liz

A very beautiful form. I must admit that your meanings often allude me but I think I have a grasp on this one.
Nice.
