An UnRhyming Andaree
Created by Andrea Dietrich. The first line and the last line are both the same 11- syllable line. This form decreases in line length with each line getting progressively smaller by 2 syllables until reaching the one-syllable word in the middle of the poem. Then each of the lines increase progressively by 2 syllables until the final line of eleven syllables is met: (11/9/7/5/3/1/3/5/7/9/11). The middle word should be a word very important to the theme. It appears somewhere in the title or can be the title itself Centering the poem is also recommended for an hourglass effe
Floating above our fantastic blue marble
an ebony sky speckled with stars
bedazzles the eyes at night.
But when Sol rises
the sky bleeds
blue,
offset by
alabaster clouds,
misty puffs, fluffy and bright
absorbing rays of brilliant sunlight;
floating above our fantastic blue marble.
