The form I used to create this poem is called Scripto,
developed by our Poetry Soup poet, Phil Capitano

The brochure read- come for some winter fun,
explore picturesque pristine nature sublime;
walk down winding trails in the crisp, clear air,
escape the rush of life and have not a single care;
just dress warm and for an adventure prepare.
The day we arrived there was tons of sun,
and I was excited to have a real great time;
but it sure was a crisp cold frigid day,
an outside camp is where we were to stay;
and told from the camp and guide not to stray.
I did not notice at first that snow had begun,
but with a shrug into a horse sleigh I did climb;
and off we went over blankets of untouched snow,
and right smack into my face those snowflakes did blow;
with biting, twisting, turning teeth- pretty though.
I came back to camp a frozen girl quite undone,
we were to walk a trail after- oh what a crime;
I sat with hot coffee by a fire, shivering and shaking,
afraid if I moved anything my bones would be breaking;
isn't this great honey, he said- I smiled sweet, faking.
