Poet, the Alchemist

Poet, the Alchemist of prose magician, conjurer, word flows vivid imagery, life sublime illuminating minds through time a poet’s imagination Sweetly words lie in hallowed rows casting and themes, a story grows or rhyme and skip along a page Poet, the Alchemist. Perhaps a poet’s holy grail write one poem that might entail philosophy, enlightenment that would be an accomplishment non-fiction, not a fairy tale Poet, the Alchemist.

Wonderful poem Georgia, unfortunately in the line "write that one line that might entail" there are 9 syllables. Thanks for entering my contest. Loved the poem. Charlie

This is really pretty. Love the imagery you used! I see you used a different rhyme for your a and b rhymes in each verse. I hope it is accepted that way. I really like that style of doing it because it gives more freedom to the writer.

Hi Andrea, first time penning a Rondeau and I interpreted the instructions literally. I see what you mean, now I've revisited, poem examples. Well this will be my learning from this exercise.
