Dizain
A dizain is a type of poem that follows a prescribed format of syllables per line while adhering to a certain rhyme scheme. A dizain should be comprised of a single 10-line stanza which includes 10 syllables in every line and is written in accordance with this rhyme scheme: ababbccdcd.

Feeling soft soil squishing between my toes is but one pleasure my garden provides. I love how its sweet smells engage my nose, the sunshine, fresh air, and much more besides. I've never used chemical pesticides and welcome nature's critters every spring, from caterpillars to the birds that sing. Color draws butterflies to sip nectar, while wild mushrooms create a fairy ring encircling my placid pool reflector. (Dizain) 06/10/2020
