Poetic Forms
My CW “Craft of Poetry” class has been pretty fun - here are the types of poetry I’ve learned to write or reviewed:
Pantoum (example)Villanelle (example included - and no, it’s not as hard as the author claims - at least to me it isn’t)
LakesideChant (or maybe you’re more familiar with Gregorian Chant)I am the lake glittering diamonds
At the passing of gentle mother wind
Who tenderly caresses liquid
And stirs the flame within
I am the surface of the water
Whether the day is hot or cold
I ripple, dance, form many pictures
At times mirror smooth, at times pebble-rolled
I am the depths of father lake
Murky, mysterious, aged, wise
Colored with swirling sand and turbulent
Few find the treasure in sly earth lies
Above, beyond, around does my border cross
Come to my banks, bury your sorrow and lossSMN, 2/25/03
