Random Thoughts *20* a Rondel

*****Rondel: A French form with 13 lines: Two quatrains and a quintet.. rhyming is as follows:
ABba, abAB, abbaA*******



Exotic miss caramel swirl,
seductive in her dress of satin.
I had make it happen,
make myself known to this girl.

I approach. Her name is Pearle!
we hit a club in lower Manhattan.
Exotic miss caramel swirl,
seductive in her dress of satin.

I gave salsa dancing a whirl.
I did decent, on a whim.
pheromones erupt from her skin,
this beautiful Latin girl
Exotic miss caramel swirl.

:) I can see you "salsa dancing," in my mind. Just sayin'. I love the way your thoughts curl around each other. This is beautiful, romantic and dreamy. Love your random thoughts, and how they create such a breathtaking mood. :) Brandy

Only in your mind? Lol! The Rondel is one of my favorites to write. The syllable pattern and use of the same lines in different places within each stanza. It brings a different element to the thought.. Much love

Hey, Jared, you should call this rhyme! Just thought i'd mention that since you required no free verse and if anyone looks here for your example, they might get confused. This one really was a delight! andrea
