The Dodoitsu is a fixed folk song form of Japanese origin and is often about love or humor. It has 26 syllables made of four lines of 7, 7, 7, 5 syllables respectively. It is unrhymed and non-metrical.

Wailing winds warn Winter’s nigh
 
rattling the skeletal trees,

as flurries of flakes hail Her,

befitting a Queen.
