Notes About The Poem

                    

Rispetto
The Rispetto lyric is generally composed of eight hendecasyllabic (11-syllable) lines. Early on the rhyme scheme was usually abababcc , but ababccdd is now more prominent.

Fragrant

Dictionaries define fragrant as a sweet aroma; a pleasant, agreeable smell. Yet, a fragrant odor's a sensual treat that affects our mood much more than these words tell. What makes a smell sweet is subjective, of course, but a fragrant bouquet draws us to its source. Fond memories tethered to a fragrant scent, oft recall pleasantries and times well spent.
