L for Living Room

Our living room we all adore
just to the right of the front door.
The big mirror added to the view;
the comfy leather couches, too,
made pleasant visits, to be sure.

Furniture fanciness was more!
Mom's curio sat on the floor
and housed spheres--green, pink, brown, and blue.
Our living room.

Piano practice! I got sore
from sitting; music lessons pore.
Nat'l Geographics accrue.
Dates and comp'ny we bid adieu.
More serious talks at the core;
our living room.

Here's my first try at a Rondeau! A Rondeau often has fifteen octo- lines with three stanzas. It usually only has two rhymes used in the poem.

A word or words from the first part of the first line are used as a refrain ending the second and third stanzas. The rhyme scheme is aabba aabR aabbaR.
