Diatelle Poetry

A Diatelle has a set syllable count and a set rhyme. It must be centered for the diamond effect.

The syllable count is: 1-2-3-4-6-8-10-12-10-8-6-4-3-2-1,

The rhyme pattern is: abbcbccaccbcbba.

An easier way to construct this type of poem is to write the syllables and rhyming pattern down the page... then write your verse... for example:

1a
2b
3b
4c
6b
Etc.
