The Man Who Makes Me Smile

Missing image

 

 

 

 

Your poetry you write with ease
To make us smile, you are a tease
You’ll have all poets write in rhyme
You’re at your peak, you’re in your prime.

The reader smiles, that’s your intent
You’re happy with you’re message sent
For there’s no mountain you can’t climb
You’re at your peak, you’re in your prime.

A fight to write a sonnet true
The battle won, no longer blue
A man, a poet of our time
You’re at your peak, you’re in your prime.

Your poetry you write with ease -
You’re at your peak, you’re in your prime.

 

 

 


 

Author notes

This is a personal tribute to Cricketjeff, mentor and friend....thanks.

Kyrielle Sonnet:
A Kyrielle Sonnet consists of 14 lines (three rhyming quatrain stanzas and a non-rhyming couplet). Just like the traditional Kyrielle poem, the Kyrielle Sonnet also has a repeating line or phrase as a refrain (usually appearing as the last line of each stanza). Each line within the Kyrielle Sonnet consists of only eight syllables. French poetry forms have a tendency to link back to the beginning of the poem, so common practice is to use the first and last line of the first quatrain as the ending couplet. This would also re-enforce the refrain within the poem. Therefore, a good rhyming scheme
for a Kyrielle Sonnet would be:
AabB, ccbB, ddbB, AB -or- AbaB, cbcB, dbdB, AB.

In a list

    This is a wonderful sonnet, it walks the reader through the process of composing poetry and the battle to write. Rhyme and rhythm come together without the work becoming forced.
