So well written

It was .... Interesting let's just say. Very different form of poem.

You two complement each other well. Given it was built on just six words, this turned out surprisingly long - unless there are rules I'm missing. The graphics are a nice touch too.

Thank you

There are rules: a complicated end-word pattern for the first six stanzas, and then the final stanza of three lines can have all six words in any order/configuration. Learned this in college, but can't remember any well-known classic examples, sorry!

Thank you so much I’ve done a tide one on my page but I’ve mixed it up a bit into a hybrid of techniques.
