Nonet
A nonet is a poem which has nine lines. The first line has nine syllables, the second eight, the third seven and so on, until the (9th line) which has only one. Any subject or theme, rhyming is not compulsory. However, it's vital that a nonet flows smoothly and tells a complete thought. You can also write a nonet poem in a reverse format.

Veiled by a misty shawl of raindrops a shy sun fails to show its face. And colored leaves fade fast for trampled underground they morph into mold as scarecrows sag, abandoned at their posts. ~ Rain dampens tinder hopes setting a mood oft fueled by gloom, summoning depression. And as Winter approaches a melancholy grey sky weeps for Fall, as it bleeds into the soil. (Double Nonet) 12-14-2020
