Curtal Sonnet
A curtal Sonnet has eleven lines with a rhyme scheme of abc abc dcb dc
It has 10 syllables in lines 1 through 5 and 7 through 10, however
it has only two (2) syllables in lines 6 and 11 and they rhyme with lines 3,6, and 8.
I remember picking wild strawberries
with my sisters so my mom could make jam.
I looked for a glass jar to put them in,
thinking the bigger, the more it carries.
But I didn't much give a tinker's damn,
how thin.
As I ran ahead, I fell on my butt
shattering my jar, much to my chagrin.
Baring my ass, I proved this was no scam,
bleeding badly, I showed how it had cut
my skin.
