If you’d like to write a villanelle
Try simple rhyming verse to start you off
You need two lines that rhyme and scan as well.
I like Dylan Thomas Celtic’ soul
Do not go gentle, go out very rough
If you’d like to write a villanelle
What’s the topic, whose the need to tell?
Penetrating words like bullets rush
You need good lines that rhyme and scan as well.
In your writing, do the words compel?
You need to read, then haunt a burning bush
If you’d like to write a villanelle
Reading feeds you words that shape and mould
While songs fine music time will never crush
You need good lines that rhyme and scan as well.
Who can see the fire in god’s real love?
Who decode the angels’ wings, now crushed.
If you’d like to write a villanelle
You need two lines that rhyme and scan as well.
