I recall one Christmas eve, It had not snowed at all; At dawn I could not believe, Delicate white snowfall. _________________ November 19, 2015 Jueju For the contest, Any Poem Written This Week, sponsor, Skat Ninth Place

Constance, I found this example of the form you want us to try and I LOVE this. It's so beautiful. i notice you are doing ab ab rhyme scheme. Honestly, I did not know how to interpret "matched couplets" as AA BB or ABAB. Do you think both ways are acceptable? I will just try your way from this example. And belated congrats on this one. VERY belated I see.
