PLANET EARTH ~ MANS RESPONSIBILTY ~ A VILLANELLE
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
Good Morning FAY ~ Brian here ! Thanks for your encouraging comments. It took me all my spare time Yesterday ~ so I saved it as DRAFT and posted it in the Morning Slot. The RHYME PATTERN looks complicted BUT ~ When it works it works. We always use some *HALF-RHYME* as *FULL RHYME* is difficlt to mintain in a VILLANELLE as well as preserving the flow - form & function of the Poem. Also bearing in mind the Villanelles are an oral form of Poetry ~ to be remembered & recited ~ AMEN !
Blessings & Peace & Joy
Love Brian & Angela 💛💛💛

Not an easy form to write as I know only too well and if not careful you can compromise the poetry for the sake of adhering to the form. Anyway it works well here - good write A&B.

You sound as though you have a fun life. Recently, I haven\'t been doing anything; do to this C-19 thing. After reading your poem, I think I do need to be more active (haha).
Persistence is key

Got any spare oxy-wotsits? I want one! lol. Ohh, ignorance, e.g. of language, is not always bliss.
Bonjour - bit of German there for you.
Fido said \'Woof! Keep taking the tablets - me, that is!\'

ANGELA HERE (Evening clinic today so Brian has left me to surf MPS while he Gardens with Smokey !)
Yes NEIK SEDAKA an underplayed Singer (Hes on ALEXA !) great pianist & much Pathos in His voice. I heard SOLITAIRE (on ALEXA) and the thought came to me of people like Willy struggling tomorrow and not understanding the brave new World - do any of us ? I felt TANKA S were an ideal genre for vignettes you enjoyed it ! There are still spaces on the Heaven Fusion *BEYOND T HE SUNSET* (Pat Boone) If you have time. I am just commenting on *ABSORBING*
Blessings & Love & Joy & Peace

You know if you just printed the colors without the words it would still be a moving work of art. Painfully well conceived... here in Texas its all red and orange, sad to say.

ANGELA 💛 MY WIFE 💛 A VIGINTI (5 X 4) BALLAD
Nafis Light said:
I respect this piece, and no jealousy whatsoever just because I am single.
Like what I posted in a different site, that I just don\'t focus on romantic relationships...and I am not desperate like many people, including at the workplace.
They kept asking me about it because of myself being 27 years old and still single.
I didn\'t do much explanation to them, because there...opening up about personal matters is not a wise thing to do, because people there like to talk and share things with everyone.

Me again - well this is in 8.6.8.6. metre, known as Common Metre, to which may hymn-tunes fit. I may come up with one. Not \'Fight the good fight\' though that\'s a well-known wedding hymn - for me and KP anyway!

Good write A&B. Does Smokey know these Yin and Yang fellas (or gals)?
I don\'t know them. You got two Chinese lodgers there?!
Fido not sure whether to bark to deter you, though he does not think Yin and Yang is too spooky!
