Nonet
A nonet is a poem which has nine lines. The nonet poetic arrangement comprises of an unusual format, where the first line is made up of nine syllables, the second eight, the third seven and continues, until the final one (9th line) which features only one syllable. The nine line poem can feature any subject or theme, and rhyming is not compulsory. However, it's vital that a nonet poem flows smoothly and tells a complete thought. You can also write a nonet poem in a reverse format. Here, you write the first line with a single syllable, 2nd line with two syllables and keep ascending to the last line which comprises of 9 syllables.
Carmine, orange, and rust paint the trees
as they drip from Jack Frost's brush
clashing with emerald green
they set treetops afire
with blazing color
a splendorous
November
work of
art
red
cerise
and scarlet
colored pigments
fuel vermilion flames
that scorch green canopies
crimson ashes in their wake
dabbled with scarlet and yellow
as the leaves change almost overnight
