To think that I would write a villanelle
Has made me think that I have lost my mind
Though I’ve written them I dare never tell
To organize words that were once Pell Mel
Though I am blind being led by the blind
To think that I would write a villanelle
Of the refrains they do ring a sweet bell
It gives me a good kick in my behind
Though I’ve written them I dare never tell
Everyone I’ve written makes me feel swell
Unhinged emotions no longer in a bind
To think that I would write a villanelle
I keep them all at no price I would sell
Though no one gives offers to be declined
Though I’ve written them I would never tell
Some have seen heaven others have seen hell
And with both the entities I have dined
To think that I would write a villanelle.
Though I’ve written them I would never tell.
