Now that you mentioned it, I did a Pleiades Sonnet, Connie, as Carol mentioned Ars Poetica; Triolet on Triolet, also of late, Pleiades on Pleiades, welcoming as always my friend, Aloha~William

Dear William, This is a very clever Triolet. Isn't this an Ars Poetica, a poem about writing a poem? Well done, and congrats on your win. Carol Louise

Thanks aplenty, Carol, I chose the French pronunciation "lay" over the English sound "let", deemed as a subjective move, Aloha~William
