a whimsical rondeau
A chapter in the book rondels and rondeaus
My Meadow Blooms
by adewpearl
|
My meadow blooms, a glad bouquet of johnny jump ups on display. Here clover with its nectar brings the bumblebee with beating wings and butterflies in bright array. As sprites among wild mushrooms play throughout this fertile home for fae, one song their magic chorus sings, "My meadow blooms." Where buttercups in breezes sway as far my eyes this scene survey, from banks that line the laughing spring to distant oaks where mosses cling, all creatures cheer with voices gay, "My meadow blooms." |

A rondeau is a poem in thirteen eight syllable lines and two four syllable lines. The first five line verse has a rhyme scheme of AABBA. The second verse, which consists of four lines, has the rhyme scheme of AABC. The last line of this verse is only four syllables and is made up of the first words of the first line of the first verse.
The final verse of six lines has a rhyme scheme of AABBAC and repeats the refrain of the second verse as its final line. If that is all too confusing, it ends up looking and sounding like this poem! LOL
"fae" is another word for fairies
