Great poem… Out of curiosity, what is Rictameter Verse? Maybe I’d like to try it! Hope all is well with you and yours! As always, blessings!
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! ☺
Sounds like fun! I’ll have to give it a go… Many blessings to you and yours!
And to you, Jonathan! Enjoy playing with the Rictameter. 😊
Dear tanya!!i like very much the poem of nobletheme.but i am unable to find him.

Beautiful poem, I love the form you used. It is new to me, I must try it.
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.
I am willing to try it… thank you for introducing me to this form Tanya.
My pleasure! I was introduced to it by Linda Wolff. If you are interested, this is the post where she introduced the form:

Highly effective imagery and you make good contrasting use of the repeated word.
Thank you, Dave! The repeated word is my favorite part of the Rictameter. I am glad you liked my usage.
