Magnifique'! It will be,
in it's simplicity.
"Anapest Destiny"

Villanelle, ala three,
start with rhyme, (naturally)
Magnifique'! It will be.

Add some spice, (levity)
'ats-a-nice, (brevity).
"Anapest Destiny"

Master chefs all agree,
though complete lunacy,
Magnifique'! It will be.

Shake it up, spastically,
serve half-baked, (just like me!)
"Anapest Destiny"

Perseverance is key,
make your own recipe,
Magnifique"! It will be!
Anapest Destiny!

Pete,
Thank ya! I'm thinking that one could do an acrostic version which might also be the shortest known villanelle in existence. Can't get around the number of lines, or the repitition, but use as few words as possible, and still adhere to format. Oh yeah, and, it still has to make some kind of sense/nonsense. Any takers? Happy Thanksgiving.

Magnifique, 'Tis... This is really quite brilliant, Doc...   Acrostic, you say?  That WOULD be a tough one, considering the parameters of this form...Yikes - Anyone ever call you a poetic masochist???...
