Kyrielle
A Kyrielle is a poem type made of quatrains. The Kyrielle is also a rhyming poem, so the quatrains must rhyme somehow. Each line of a Kyrielle poem must consist of eight syllables. The rhymes in a kyrielle occur in couplets. It uses the phrase "Lord have mercy", or a variant of it, as a refrain as the second line of the couplet or last line of the quatrain.

Immune to October extremes Autumn fuels fantasy dreams. Setting the poet in me free, Autumn feels surreal to me. I see the hand of God at work validating Nature's artwork. And it's so beautiful to see, Autumn feels surreal to me. October smells of harvest time and faded flowers past their prime. The changing leaves fill me with glee, Autumn feels surreal to me. One of the greatest gifts of all is mid-October's gift of Fall, Colored leaves hang from every tree, Autumn feels surreal to me.
