and love the syllables iamb....

in my poem they do sit
each the others opposite;

a foot is two syllables long,
lines of them make up my song
any such line..is fine

Dancing Words
As to poems with cadent feet,		
in tapping to an old-style pace,		
the pulsing verses gladly meet,		
and forward line by line advance,		
with elegance and charming grace,		
through steps of iamb and trochee,			
to show a love, make sadness flee,			
or send a message and seed sow			
with voice that sets a poet free	
across the seas where the winds blow

A Formal Evening
Haibun trying to read your mind from afar,
sitting acrostic from you at the bar.
Iamb itching to sit on the stool beside you,
but somebody's sonnet - and I don't think she'll move.
Are we just a couplet of friends having drinks?
Maybe you quintella me what you think.
I feel giddy and dizain without any warning,
and I know I'm going to feel verse in the morning.
But we've been playing footles and it feels so right,
so why not just tanka me home tonight?...
