My First Nonet Poem. Nine lines long, the first has 9 syllables, the second 8, and so on.
As I said in the description, this is my first, and so far, only Nonet Poem.  The first line is 9 syllables, the second 8, and so on until you reach one.  There was entered in a contest that had a photo prompt.  Sadly, the photo is long gone from WDC.




Red Sunset


The sun is sinking low in the sky
The road just looks to slink on by
Up above, the sky is red
It’s time to go to bed
Not yet, I’m not done
I want you hon
In my arms
Your charms
Mine
