eager fingers twist key
mystery of the novel unfolds
a maiden voyage sailed over the swells
rolling waves of turning pages
mind captains the tempest

Hi, Jonathan! Thank you. Rictameter verse follows a syllable pattern of:
2
4
6
8
10
8
6
4
2
The last two syllable line is a repeat of the first two syllable line, creating point of connection to play with. It is fun form to play with.
Many blessings your way! ☺

Thank you! You should try it. It is a lot of fun to play with, especially working the repeat of the first line on the last. It forces some creative connections through the poem.
