Under the Trees

Under the trees
A brook so slowly is splashing
Under the trees
The butterflies dance with the bees
There echoes a distant crashing
The bucks of the forest clashing
Under the trees

~The form is Rondelet~

rondelets are sweet forms. It's nice to meet someone here who loves different forms the way I do. They are so fun to try and to master as well. Yes, I agree with you. I feel my limerick was stronger too. But the contest would not allow me to enter it as limerick form. (sigh)
