An Ode to my dear friend who passed away from cancer recently, at age 55.

ASSIGNED TOPIC--HERO

The Irregular ode was created by Abraham Cowley in the 17th Century. The Irregular ode imitates the Pindaric ode style of serious subject matter, but abandons the repeated triad structure and allows each stanza to be individual in its creation. Stanzas vary in number of lines, line length and rhyme scheme.
No meter is required. With the irregular ode, there is no rhyme pattern. However, each end word will have a rhyme somewhere in the poem. For example line 1 may rhyme with line 17.
