Essence
The Essence, created by Emily Romano, is a short, structured form of 2 lines. There are six syllables in each line, with an end rhyme, and an internal rhyme. The internal rhyme is across both lines, and you may have more than one Essence with the same theme to form a verse.

The sky fades turquoise blue night's nigh and wet with dew. Cooler air fresh and clear blows fair as dusk draws near. Fireflies flash coded lights that clash in courtship flights. And Sol sinks out of sight a ball of crimson light. (Essence) 06/30/20 Verses In Essence - 8 Lines Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Joseph May
