What Sort Of Form Is A Villanelle? a villanelle I think What sort of form is a villanelle? Some twisted form of poetry Like a convoluted paradelle I think it’s something I can’t spell A way of confusing me What sort of form is a villanelle? How do you write a villanelle? You study poems especially Like a convoluted paradelle Do you understand this poetic hell? Or are you wondering bemusedly? What sort of form is a villanelle? This is a poetry form strange and fell Sets me reeling distractedly Like a convoluted paradelle What this thing is I can’t tell A strange twist on poetry What sort of form is a villanelle? Like a convoluted paradelle Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Terrific, Marsha, darling girl. You are amazing.  A villanelle My darling you have penned a villanelle 'Tis wonderful in ev'ry way I read A fine poet you are to write this well A lovely verse, at first I could not tell Such magic in your fingers as I feed My darling you have penned a villanelle And now I ask you, how you pen so swell In words so beautiful my love you lead A fine poet you are to write this well I want to savor ev'ry word and others tell And I am at your beck and call indeed My darling you have penned a villanelle A wonderful poem; and now I will tell I'm in your heart a slave of words you feed A fine poet you are to write this well. So let me feast away and send my soul to hell For drinking in this wonder brew, indeed My darling you have penned a villanelle A fine poet you are to write this well ((Marsha)) Newell Sharing God's Love through perfectlovepoetry.com |

 (smiles) YAY!!! Ooohhhhhh...I know just how you feel, sweet friend, these kind of poems are indeed so very twisted and can be like a three-ring circus writing them! (giggles) This is a delightful wonderful villanelle, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marsha, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Newell darling boy thank you truly but you know this is only the third I wrote, and not a form I particularly enjoy. Its too hard to do, unless you are particularly into form writing, or you happen to be a brilliant writer, so I miss on both counts. Thank you muchly for your villanelle Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

’Deer dearest heart, that is just too much like hard work, and I’m not into work at all if I can possibly avoid it. The only reason this was written was because I simply couldn’t let my darling daughter get away with it. Your writing however is ace and I hope to see some more soon. As for it suiting me, you mean something strange and twisted into a nightmarish form suits me? Oh my, I’m going to have to employ a spin-doctor I think. Maybe that way I can redeem my reputation, but maybe its too big a task even for them. I know you didn’t mean it like that I really do thank you love, merci beaucoup cheri  Love and warm stuff As always Mushy  To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

Lyra darling girl thank you so much darling girl, whether I’d have done this without the incentive of Krissy doing one is debatable, in fact I very much doubt it. Thank you darling, try it I would say for you it’s a cinch  Love and warm stuff As always Mushy To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |
