Learning poetry III - Carnival Carousel (Roundel)
The ROUNDEL is a deritave of rondeau and rondine... It has eleven lines constructed from two quatrains, and a triplet. The rhyme scheme only has two rhymes and a refrain from the first phrase of first line, thus, the second line rhymes with the refrain:.. a. b. a.B . b. a. b . a. b. a. B.. example: If he could know my songs are all for him, At silver dawn or in the evening glow, Would he not smile and think it but a whim, If he could know? Or would his heart rejoice and overflow, As happy brooks that break their icy rim When April's horns along the hillsides blow? I may not speak till Eros' torch is dim, The god is bitter and will have it so; And yet to-night our fate would seem less grim If he could know. --- Sara Teasdale

Rain Down Upon Me
Late night and a little weary. When it rains it is a blessing to me and I always go out into it no matter the hour. I raise my face to the sky, close my eyes and outstretch my arms. It does wonders for the weary. Try it some time...you don't have to be weary to feel the love shower down upon you. :)

She came unto me out of the moonlit sea Her hair dripping like honey dancing slowly down to her glistening fullness. Seaweed draping over her succulence to mask her inner sanctum. Her nest so tempting at best as I pondered her nectar within.
