Today is R



Rictameter

A rictameter is a nine-line poem. Each line has a specific number of syllables. The first line has two syllables. The next line has four. The next line has six. The next line has eight. The next line has ten. And we work our way down again (8,6,4,2)  The last line is the same as the first line... OURS IS...

RAMBUNCTIOUSLY

See me
Rambunctiously
engulfed in written words
fulfilling a poetic dream
to be loved for the words I've chosen
creeping into the heart of you
lingering in your mind
where only you
see me

YOUR TURN
ENJOY
