A very well-written Rondelet for the 'picture this' challenge. An excellent interpretation of the picture. Unfortunately, your fourth line should rhyme with pearls.

Each strand is a different length
(Each lengthy strand, uniquely twirls) NS suggested change)

    Hi Sandra; thank you for catching the total miss of the pattern. I like your suggestion,

This rondelet, She Loves Her Pearls, has the correct structure, I think, and definitely drives home the point that this woman has an engrossing affection for these extravagant pearls. Nice.

The vision I got when reading this, is of a little girl playing dress up. Some pearls are to her knee's is what made me picture a little girl.
When I read what you write it is so easy to picture it. You make writing seem so effortless.

I admit I have no idea about how to write a Rondelet but this is a beautiful poem so what does it matter. I think it could be just as beautiful in free verse to be honest. I hope you do well in the competition kindest regards and well done Meia xx
