Catena Rondo poetic form
As found on the Poets Garrett
This form is the brainchild of Robin Skelton, academic, writer, poet, and anthologist. It is a Quatrain, and the second line forms a rhyming couplet with the third line and is also used as the first and fourth line of the following stanza. Any number of stanzas can be created this way and the final stanza is a repeat of the first. This gives a rhyme scheme of:
A B b A
B C c B
C D d C
F A a F
A B b A
No set meter. Minimum of three stanzas.
My hubby, Dave, and I spent this past weekend with our friends, Pete and Brynda. Each couple has been married for thirty-four years, and next year, we will celebrate our thirty-fifth anniversaries on a Caribbean cruise. This year, we gathered for the eclipse, and filled the rest of the time with endless games of cards, Trivial Pursuit and stories from the past. SUCH a GOOD time!
