Loop Poem -
It shows 2 couplets [the 4 lines] that RHYME. After those 2 couplets, there are 4 shorter lines that do NOT rhyme. Then all of this repeats as desired in this format. The length isn't stipulated. The last word of the first line becomes the first word of the next line and so on. But the couplets do not have to follow this pattern , only the 4 line stanzas. So, couplets rhyme, but the 4 line stanzas do not have too UNLESS one desires for them to rhyme. To get the full effect of the ?loop? style, I believe the length needs to be at least like the example provided. Otherwise the loop is lost

Couplets mixed with 4 line stanzas, the last word, first word scheme is maintained in the stanzas. It can also be used in the couplets. Rhyme scheme is ab, cc, defg, hh, ii, jklm, nn, oo. [be sure & read about the variation for the practice/potlatch]

I hope I did it right.
