A Peppered Picle is a new form invented by Dolly's Poems.

Pick a subject for the first word which should be one syllable only. Describe your thoughts about the word in four lines using the rhyming format below with internal rhyming. Then the closing couplet should conclude thoughts on the subject. Seven lines, written in iambic tetrameter.

I labeled it a "modified" Peppered Pickle" because my main word in the first line should be one syllable, and it has two syllables. Well, this was my first try at the form.
