Write a triolet, a poem consisting of 8 lines, note the repetitive lines, and two rhymes, here are a few examples: We Poets LuAnn Kennedy (1984– ) We poets are so very strange! We write and write and lose our minds! Emotions flow in quite a range; We poets are so very strange! We’re happy. Then, we quickly change; To make a world it takes all kinds. We poets are so very strange! We write and write and lose our minds! ----- Untitled Robert Bridges (1844-1930) When first we met, we did not guess That Love would prove so hard a master; Of more than common friendliness When first we met we did not guess Who could foretell the sore distress, The inevitable disaster, When first we met? We did not guess That Love would prove so hard a master. ---- "The Night" By LuAnn Kennedy The night is short, though it seems long. For us the night could last all day. It’s full of love’s unending song. The night is short, though it seems long. There’s naught between us that is wrong; We don’t let life get in love’s way. The night is short, though it seems long. For us the night could last all day. Heart2Heart  |

Here's one I wrote:  Teacup Triolet My lips have made their mind up I'm sure they want your kiss Although they taste of ketchup My lips have made their mind up So please put down your tea cup It's time for us to practice My lips have made their mind up I'm sure they want your kiss |

 Roses Triolet
I dream of your angel’s breath
So sweet like your thoughtful heart
Rich of colors and tenderness
I dream of your angel’s breath
Just want to touch your softness
For fragrant scents near and far
I dream of your angel’s breath
So sweet like your thoughtful heart

I hesitated posting last night because I couldn't get the desired effect I was trying to do...I'll work on it and stick it, but it may take a little while.  This is just one of the many reason I don't drink or condone itI’m never drinking again man, I’m through Well, at least I woke up in my bed WHAT’S SO FUNNY? Hey, what did I do? I’m never drinking again man, I’m through Who’s in the pictures, man, let me see too If I find out who took this, they’re dead I’m never drinking again man, I’m through Well, at least I woke up in my bed |

OK this is what I was trying to do last night...the design of this poem lends itself to repetition...So I tried to play into that... Here's what I was shooting for...  I Swear it Won’t Happen Again (triolet)It won’t happen again, please believe me So I conceal it with make-up and lies If you need to run here’s my spare key It won’t happen again, please believe me YOUR CHEATING DON’T TRY TO DECEIVE ME! He won’t like you with another black eye It won’t happen again, Please, believe me So, I conceal it with make-up and lies |

Oh this one's HILARIOUS CD - love it ! I believe those short style poems are easier to write in a funny manner.

This is just one of the many reason I don't drink or condone itI’m never drinking again man, I’m through Well, at least I woke up in my bed WHAT’S SO FUNNY? Hey, what did I do?
