Winning Poem

OK...my turn to throw a form at you...one from the Starlite vaults. I wrote one this week and it was heaps of fun...just sharing it with you...Please have an earnest attempt...you will enjoy. This is the ZEJEL: The first stanza, known as the mudanza, has three lines, rhyming aaa. All the other stanzas - as many of them as you like - have 4 lines, rhyming bbba, the a rhyme harking back to the first stanza. So the overall rhyming scheme for the poem is aaa/bbba/ccca/ddda/... Colloquial language tends to be used, and 8-syllable lines are usual (though not obligatory)! Have fun. If you think you need halp, just ask. Smiles, love & blessings...Cherry
