Fibonacci
The number of syllables in each line must equal the sum of the syllables in the two previous lines. So, start with 0 and 1, add them together to get your next number, which is also 1, 2 comes next, then add 2 and 1 to get 3, and so on. Fibonnaci: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21... Poetry: 1 syllable, 1 syllable, 2 syllables, 3 syllables, 5 syllables, 8 syllables, 13 syllables, 21 syllables.

As time ticks by you grow wise and dreams start to fade while innocence and youth vanish leaving you to deal with life’s hypocrisies and lies and extraordinary slowly disappears from your vocabulary forever. The years can turn hopes into unfulfilled wishes restricted to the realm of sleep for reality no longer supports fantasies and your persona consists of anecdotes memories and idiosyncrasies.

How sad this is, Emile, and though I know it's true, I hate to admit it. Conceding such decline almost seems to hasten it. Absolutely beautiful! Congratulations on your first-place win in Dear Heart's contest. Hugs, Carolyn
