2. A Triolet

I’ve written another poem, again all about ME. Here it is:

I used to sit upon my shelf
Quiet and alone
Preferring to keep to myself
I used to sit upon my shelf
It wasn’t so good for my health
To sit and moan and groan
I used to sit upon my shelf
Quiet and alone


This one is a triolet, which is a French poetry form. You might have spotted the pattern. In a triolet the first line is repeated on lines four and seven, and the second line is repeated in line eight. Lines three and four rhyme with line one, and line six rhymes with line two.

Have you written a poem lately? If not, why not write a triolet? There’s a wonderful article with a better explanation and some more examples here.
