ANOTHER ESSENCE

Michael Edwards

 

 

Elation: train rolling.

The station bell tolling.

 

 

 The Essence, created by Emily Romano is a short,

structured form of two-lines, six syllables each with

an end rhyme and internal rhyme.

    Good one once more Michael.

  • Nicholas Browning

    An interesting concept to be sure. Haven't seen one of these before, but I quite like it.

    • Michael Edwards

      I am always trying out new forms - I've even devised a few myself (will post one tomorrow) - bit of a nerd really 🙂 🙂

      • Nicholas Browning

        I typically stick to one or two styles that I'm good with and like, but you just keep throwing these out here man. I'm gonna have to do something crazy soon! Haha. Have a good one Michael.

          No - I am Bic

            Hi there Bic of poetic style iambic!

            Yes! Elation at the train rolling! I so agree! Even the commuter train!
            As for the rhyme style:
            Me fixing the dinner
            for all of the sinners

            • Michael Edwards

              There's such a feeling of satisfaction when you've boarded the train, found your seat and it starts to move. As for the form it can be more difficult than it looks.

              HAPPY being a DAD
              Dry NAPPY ~ That's my LAD !
