A love poem that tests a syllable count format I have been toying with. I do not know if its been done before but it is 18 lines, progressing from one syllable in the first line to 10 in the 10th line, thence back again. Let me know.


Just So You by M.A.Meddings

A
Red rose
That I give
To you with love
In a hope you see
One day very clearly
That all I did say and do
Was to prove how I worship you
I Absolutely saw no light
From sunshine hidden behind dark cloud forms
until you came and enchanted me
Within your delicate rapture
Suddenly beguiling me
With a beautiful smile
Winning my heart
Easily
Just so
You

This is a beautiful write... Very romantic! :)
About the form, this write is similar to a double etheree. An etheree is a poem that goes from one syllable to 10 syllables, and a double etheree is two stanzas, one going from one to 10 and the second from 10 to 1. Hope that helps! :))

You have sculpted a true piece of art and it demands adoration by its very existence.
