Notes About The Poem

Example for my contest. (9-lines, 9-syllables) abab, abab, c

The Queen of Day

Beheld, the warmth that softens my face 
Whilst in the coolness that brisk my nose 
Ere, the queen of day, comforts my space 
Like petals fragrance; a healthy rose 

Freckles; suns beckon - hidden in dark 
Tanning or Redding on pale white skin
Gorgeous this day...shall thy walk the park
I am king...this glorious mornin' 

My presence makes my painting...Perfect!
