Footle

Footles’ consist of two
Funny lines that should rhyme
Finding this amazing 
Form, like discovering
Fabulousness, in a 
Fountain pen of pure gold
Fellow poets try it




A footle poem is a form of poetry consisting of 2 lines and 2 syllable trochaiac monometers with an integral title suitable for light, witty, pertinent, topical verse.
