A Very Good Man

He
may 
not have
the perfect
face and body,
but I can see into a soul
radiant like the omniscient sun in azure skies.
In indigo nights, I press against his heart, longing to possess his perpetual light.

Ahh okay, since I am doing Fibonacci research, I had to read this poem of yours. And it's wonderful. So I understand you can go on with adding lines as long as you keep the sequence intact :)

Too bad the last line has too many syllables. Otherwise a nice poem.

Andrea, I write Fibonacci, and love the style. Merely pointing out that the line, needing 21 syllables, has 22. I personally never go past 13 for that reason, to many syllables for a smooth read.

Keith, this is a form called Fibonacci. I was using the number of syllables that the form requires. I agree with you. It's not the greatest form. The form requires too many syllables at the end!
