Tesla 3-6-9
Created by Emile J. Pinet. The scientist and inventor Nikola Tesla believed that the numbers 3-6- 9 held great significance, and in deference to him, the ( 3-6-9,) was invented. An eighteen line rhyming verse with the following rhyme scheme: (aba - cdcefe - ghgijiklk,) with a syllable count of 333, 66666, 999999999. It looks best centered.

Summer means wet swimsuits and torn jeans; picnicking on the grass, smells of backyard barbeques swimming pools clear as glass; beach parties without end, family vacations and tenting with a friend. Summer's a relaxing time of year, letting folks reconnect with nature. Depression is supplanted by cheer; and amidst the butterflies and bees wildflowers of every color waft perfumed scents upon the slightest breeze. Summer stores an abundance of hope within the sound of children's laughter, building sandcastles, and skipping rope.

Thanks for sharing this... the form, the message as well as the photo. Being a social worker involved with kids, I really enjoy children's laughter. It's my prayer that I can submit one that adheres to your requirement. God bless you.

Another lovely example of your poetry form, Emile. It lends itself so well to your subject here. It's still wallowing around in my mind, but I am definitely going to try it. Good writing, my friend.
