A Dual Sonnet
A chapter in the book Little Poems
Fall, The Best
by Treischel
|
It's a bit early here for the leaves to change, but it won't be much longer. Last year's colors where spectacular. I took this picture along Summit Avenue in St. Paul, Minnesota, last fall. I wanted to capture both the essence of this picture in it's city setting, as well as the nature of the season.
The capitalization in this poem is intentional by the author.
This poem is a Dual Sonnet
A Dual Sonnet is very similar to the Bey Morlin Sonnet that I published earlier, in that both contain in-line rhyming, The Bey Morlin requires the second syllable to match the end-line rhyme. The Dual Sonnet requires a rhyme scheme in the center of the Hexametered lines of the stanza, but not neccessarily matching the end-line rhyme scheme. Infact, there are two intertwining but seperate rhyme schemes within the poem. The two schemes are as follows:
Stanza 1
a - a
b - b
b - a
a - b
Stanza 2
a - c
b - d
b - c
a -d
Stanza 3
c - e
d -f
c -e
d - f
Couplet
e - g
e - g
Since this may be hard to detect in the poem, I repeated it with the rhymes bolded so that you can see the rhyme scheme in detail better.
