I Am Anaya Poet Tail-rhyme

Notes About The Poem

 A twist in love - Tail rhyme in 6 lines.

Ship Ahoy Amor! POTD

Her cinematic poetry
In alchemist’s laboratory
Sealed love letters tell her story,
                       inked forevermores.
Surrendering his aching heart
Stark whining sounds when they're apart
She’s not his only from the start,
                       's off to other shores!

I Am Anaya February 12, 2026 at 8:18 PM Very interesting usage of. " 's off" [he's off] counts as 1 syllable, to other shores...5 syllables as required, as well as exact rhyme . [5 syllable Tails] . A great example of this poetic license is George Gershwin's " 'S Wonderful".

Duke Beaufort January 28, 2026 at 3:57 PM Anaya, you captured the irony of this relationship in excellent fashion (for real)! Sending smiles and good wishes!! I Am Anaya January 29, 2026 at 9:06 AM Duke, hope you are doing well, protesters have it hard, in this winter's storm. I've posted in notes the screenshot of real, 100% Human AI detection, which 'I began doing' on " A Pall Descends Upon Moments Cabaret" entry, back when 'I started doing it' on 10/17/2025! LOS- lot's of smiles! TyVm for the awesome review~keep warm

CayCay Godwin January 28, 2026 at 12:09 PM Precious. I see you got a non-Artificial-Ink (AI) POTD, congratulations. btw, I finally figured out what you meant by 'must be 5 syl', you were referring to the first tail-rhyme, rhyme-tail, whatever in my poem for the contest (you probably don't remember.) I got there!!! Great content in your poem, Anaya I Am Anaya January 28, 2026 at 1:14 PM A tricky form at first, we get it eventually! Cay Cay you are fun, I like that; artificial ink! Xhugs
