When the bluster and champion of words bleeds from the flue, quite unintentionally, with seeds… The whirlwind of contrast and opposing creeds turns one blue, when the bluster and champion of words bleeds. Spur of the moment spat of dandelion weeds without a clue, quite unintentionally with seeds. A test dummy with mouth and lip speeds seems so frou-frou,* when the bluster and champion of words bleeds. Delightful time but for tilt of raw deeds - a daft wind blew, quite unintentionally with seeds. When unmitigated passion and escalation leads, bad blood breaks through… when the bluster and champion of words bleeds quite unintentionally with seeds. 2/26/2022 AN ORIGINAL VILLANELLE L Milton Hankins *Frou-Frou — silly

I really liked this "A test dummy with mouth and lip speeds seems so frou-frou,* when the bluster and champion of words bleeds."

That's neat with the shorter 2nd line, hadn't thought of that. I'm always OCD about everything being the same - gotta break that! Also, there was a band called Frou Frou that released an album in around 2002, that was pretty sweet. Very breathy, but enjoyable to listen to, a bit on the electronic side, not my usual listen but good!

Difficult form, Kim, but well written. Arguments can start very quickly without notice sometimes. Smiles ~ Blessings, Bill
