About This Newsletter



"I would define, in brief, the poetry of words as the rhythmical creation of Beauty."

Edgar Allan Poe



My poems are hymns of praise to the glory of life.

Edith Sitwell (1887 - 1964)

Inside Out, Oh You Rhyme Me—Internal Rhyme




Inside out, oh you rhyme me. Inside out and round and round...


We've talked about rhyme before, but today we will focus on internal rhyme. Internal rhyme can be done in any one of the following ways:

--A word in the middle of a line rhymes with the end of the same line (leonine)

--A word in the middle of a line rhymes with the end of the next line (cross-rhyme)

--A word in the middle of a line rhymes with the middle of the next line (interlaced)

--A word anywhere but the end of a line rhymes with the end of the same line

--A word anywhere but the end of a line rhymes with the end of the next line

--A word anywhere but the end of a line rhymes with a word anywhere but the end of the same line

--A word anywhere but the end of a line rhymes with a word anywhere but the end of the next line


To help you out practicing internal rhyme, here is a poetry form to try.



Lannet



Laura Lamarca is the British poet and author that invented this form.


MUST HAVES


--Line count: 14

--Meter: Syllabic--ten syllables in each line

--Rhyme: Internal only—no end rhyme allowed



COULD HAVES or WHAT IS THE POET’S CHOICE IN ALL THIS?


--Alignment

--Number of stanzas: Format it like a sonnet (3 quatrains and a couplet) as many do or another way. It's your choice.

--Topic/theme

Comment: Tri-Fall Early morning Sunshine Tri-Fall Poem Writing com

early morning sunshine
wife in Zen
I wake up from my dark nightmares
in the late evening moonshine
we drink then
drinking, dancing up the backstairs

as we drink our red wine
and again
continuing what we started in the downstairs
a later we drink mulled wine
that is when
Nude, we resume our love affairs

still, later we drank pink wine
spending yen
there is no one who really cares
we walked to the snow line
winter glen
as we sit in our winter chairs

Regarding: "30 Poems In 30 DaysOpen in new Window. [13+]
Comment: Hi, great newsletter. I didn't realize it was NaPoWriMo. That honestly sounds like a threat in a foreign language when you say it fast, out loud lol!

I created a folder called 30 poems in 30 days. I'm going to try to write one every day. Since I missed yesterday (and I'm all about April. No Fool's) and you mentioned limericks, that was my first attempt.
Thanks.

Happy scribing! And rabbit chocolate/zombie Easter.


Thank you both for sharing and taking time to send feedback. It makes my day!
