Reason A. Poteet Poet Pleiades

Tetractys

Terse verse – the tetractys
To rhyme or not, your choice.
Twenty syllable count -
The first line has just one
Two for the second and 
Three and four follow suit
Then ten will end  - line five

Poteet February 19, 2022 at 5:22 PM "Perfectly" is a stretch (that I'll accept with glee). I enjoy writing tetractys and had fun describing them in a pleaides. Thanks for your generous support comment, Connie.
