I think you did an excellent job with this format. I loved the rhymes and your refrain of "Cinderella." Thank you so much for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I forgot about this formation! I remember writing a couple in school but that was many moons ago lol. A very sweet poem that I can see a lovelorn boy writing to his sweetheart. I think I might try writing a rondelet myself :)

Loved the picture. I always thought Cinderella was french. I have seen the roundelet before but never done one. I intend to try to write every type of poem. A lofty goal. Good work. Karen

What a fun rondelet for Cinderella. And she could be a symbol of many poor single gals who are "unattached and lonely." But perhaps her standards for "prince" could be holding her back.

Seshadri does a beautiful modern Cinderella.
Your rondelet isn't bad by any means it brings forth a few rhymes that at first read don't belong together but after reading it with a British accent it works very well.
Only lonely and strongly have a lovely way of showing how much you would care for this beautiful woman. Thanks for the lovely imagery.
Jesse

This was an entertaining and interesting retelling of the Cinderella story in brief rondelet form. A plus was the color-coded font for Cinderella's name. Very well done!

It is a pity that you cannot use good metre in these posts as your words would definitely pop with sparkle then. I love the sentiments.

This is just a suggestion as you have feminine endings in your poem:

Cinderella
Be mine and love me only
Cinderella
our love will bond so strongly
I'm here, do not be lonely
our hearts will link in closely.

Love Dolly x x x
