Monorhyme

Matching like-minded zones
Multiple kindred cones
Myriad tribal bones
Misplaced grammar atones
Marriage of stars and stones
Mosaic blended tones
Merry musical thrones

WoW! Michelle, What a good entry for the “ Pleiades 3” contest. And it’s in monoryme too. I would be surprised if I didn’t see you as a top contender with this well written piece. Best wishes in the contest. Have a wonderful evening:-) Alexis

How challenging this must have been to monorhyme with only 6 syllables allowed per line... you pulled it off adeptly, with your usual poetic grace. I thought I would like "Marriage of stars and stones" best, then I read "Mosaic blended tones". Let's call it a tie (and eat some scones).

I actually considered using scones in the poem but thrones worked out better - am always happy for your feedback:)

I've never been lucky at games of chance, but maybe that will change now!

Your artistry and intellect never fails to amaze me, Michelle. Every moment of your poem is exquisite, but "Marriage of stars and stones" blows my mind! A wonderful entry for the contest. Best wishes for a win and warmest wishes for you my friend.. ~Susan
