Welsh Cat In the Hat
At times, I'd just like to slap that Seuss;
hendecasyllabic seems obtuse.
But Gwawdodyn's no use: three nines, a ten,
and internal rhymes to be set loose.

There! Now I can say I've tried a Gwawdodyn: a Welsh quatrain with an aaxa rhyme scheme, specific syllable counts (9/9/10/9), and internal rhyme requirements on line 3. Onward!
