Excellent NaPoWriMo 13 - Rondeau Highlights of Home : L for Living Room by Mama Baer

____________________ Our living room we all adore just to the right of the front door. The big mirror added to the view; the comfy leather couches, too, made pleasant visits, to be sure. Furniture fanciness was more! Mom's curio sat on the floor and housed spheres--green, pink, brown, and blue. Our living room. Piano practice! I got sore from sitting; music lessons pore. Nat'l Geographics accrue. Dates and comp'ny we bid adieu. More serious talks at the core; our living room. ____________________   Author Notes Here's my first try at a Rondeau! A Rondeau often has fifteen octo- lines with three stanzas. It usually only has two rhymes used in the poem. A word or words from the first part of the first line are used as a refrain ending the second and third stanzas. The rhyme scheme is aabba aabR aabbaR.
