Tablet (Poem)

Here is a poem that I wrote over the last week.  It is written in trochaic tetrameter in envelope rhyme; this is a fancy way of saying that each line has 7 beats and the sounds are stressed in a way that goes from hard to soft.  Each stanza has four lines where the rhyme goes a-b-b-a.  May it bless you.  Nahum.

Our Masks (Poem)

Here is a poem that I wrote today about the masks that we wear.  It is written in the form of a rondeau where the rhyming scheme is R-aabba aabR aabbaR;  The R is a repeated phrase, or a rentrement as the French call it, which states the theme of the poem; in this case it is “Our masks we wear”.  God bless, Nahum.

Castle (Poem)

Here is a poem that I wrote at the end of 2024 about the perfect home to live in.  It is written in the form of a rondeau where the rhyming scheme is R-aabba aabR aabbaR;  The R is a repeated phrase, or a rentrement as the French call it.  It states the theme around which the poem revolves.  God bless, Nahum.
