The End (Nonet)

It is simple to pretend, you know.
Life can be so easy, you see.
Questions must be avoided--
What else can we do now?
We were both amiss.
The end’s clear: friends
We can’t be.
Adieu
Then.

Ame~


You are so fun ... this is GREAT !!!

And for those who might not know what the Nonet form consists of ... I'm providing the detail here~

I did one of these once ... will have to look it up~

*Huglets*

NONET

A nonet has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second line eight syllables, the third line seven syllables, etc... until line nine that finishes with one syllable. It can be on any subject and rhyming is optional.

line 1 - 9 syllables
line 2 - 8 syllables
line 3 - 7 syllables
line 4 - 6 syllables
line 5 - 5 syllables
line 6 - 4 syllables
line 7 - 3 syllables
line 8 - 2 syllables
line 9 - 1 syllable

Anyone else care to give it a try ?

Marge, in my case, I am willing to try any new form, as long as it is not a very long poem. I feel like writing a lot.

Sadness, fear, love, hate are within me
These are emotions that I see
There is a lock, chain and key
They are there, it is me
Will they come shortly
Very close, very near
Forever
Now here
Thanks


Well - it is my first try!!

I like this poem, especially the rhyming pattern. But I find the last word a little weak compared to the rest. That's only my idea, it doesn't change the beauty of the message..

Thought I'd go ahead and post my little
'double down' Nonet here to be shared~

No-No Nonet
~*Marge Tindal*~

Cannot say what prompted me to write
Perhaps little girl needing voice
No one to talk to, no choice
Pour of thought on paper
Quiet keep of real
Discovered self
Tearful shed
No, oh
No~

~Yes
Oh yes
Tearful ink
Spill of the think
Seeped from depth of self
Come to terms with real me
No more placement on back shelf
Thinking, in fact, most pleasantly
Nevermore to be, No-No Nonet

Oh what fun.  May I play?


February 8 was my husband's birthday.  So my thoughts are nostalgic.


A Nonet

When I was a young and happy child
I spent my days without a care.
Mom and Daddy sheltered me
From all evil out there.
Sunshine followed me
From dawn to dark.
Now alone
Life is
Stark.

All
Alone
And so blue.
Where have they gone
Those who loved me true?
My mama and papa
Were followed by my brothers.
Growing old means saying goodbye
To them and to so many others.
