For the Rising Stars Shining Bright Contest.
Secretly, she would come each night
And retrieve me out of my plight.
My darkness, she would wipe with light.
Would hold me tight, would hold me tight.

She would stay with me till morning.
Then leave me with a sad feeling.
I get back to my suffering.
With grief burning, with grief burning.

My solace, when things were amiss,
She would encase me in sheer bliss.
One day, she gave me her last kiss.
Her I now miss, her I now miss.

Form: Monotetra



The monotetra is a new poetic form developed by Michael Walker. Each stanza contains four lines in monorhyme. Each line is in tetrameter (four metrical feet) for a total of eight syllables. What makes the monotetra so powerful as a poetic form, is that the last line contains two metrical feet, repeated. It can have as few as one or two stanzas, or as many as desired.

Stanza Structure:

Line 1: 8 syllables; A1
Line 2: 8 syllables; A2
Line 3: 8 syllables; A3
Line 4: 4 syllables, repeated; A4, A4
