...a Bookend Monorhyme

A chapter in the book My Book of Poems 2010-2017

Birth of a Butterfly

by Mustang Patty

Beginning life,
Starting with strife,
 
Struggling to push open the chrysalis,
Letting important first breath out with a hiss,
What a beautiful wide world is this,
To spend just twenty-four hours of pure bliss.
 
Look for a wife,
Pain like a knife.

Bookend Monorhyme

an awesome form created by our fellow FanStorian, Marilyn (BeasPeas.)

Here is the form described in her own words:

"This is a Bookend Monorhyme poem, a form I created in 2016 by accident when I wrote two poems on the same topic and liked them both so I combined them into one. It consists of a 4-syllable line monorhyme and an 11-syllable line monorhyme. The two poems should be able to stand alone, but relate to each other in some way. Thank you to Jannypan for naming this form."

2 lines - 4 syllables
4 lines - 11 syllables
