Oh deary deary me. A poem in the rondelet form.
Perhaps you know
I've already fallen for you
Perhaps you know
Though we met a moment ago
my heart's beating so fast due to
your presence, you gorgeous young ewe
Perhaps you know

The elements of the Rondelet are:

1) a heptastich, a poem in 7 lines.
2) in French syllabic. Syllable count per line are 4-8-4-8-8-8-4 In English tends to be iambic in pattern.
3) composed with a rentrement, in the Rondelet the entire L1 is repeated as refrain in L3 and L7.
4) rhymed. Rhyme scheme interlocks between the refrain AbAabbA.
