Friday Fling #227 for April 12th 2013<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n


\n <\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong>The Friday Fling has always tried to kick off your weekend with something worthwhile, with both some sort of inspiring topic and a format learning experience. <\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

So this week we thought we’d suggest you write about your weekend!\u00a0 What is a favorite thing(s) to do on your weekends?\u00a0 What great experience(s) have you had on your weekends?<\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Since you may have more than just a little bit to say about such, we’re suggesting you write in a Kyrielle Sonnet<\/font> about your weekend wonder(s). <\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

According to ShadowPoetry.com,
\n <\/strong>
\n <\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

A Kyrielle Sonnet consists of 14 lines (three rhyming quatrain stanzas and a non-rhyming couplet). Just like the traditional Kyrielle poem, the Kyrielle Sonnet also has a repeating line or phrase as a refrain (usually appearing as the last line of each stanza). Each line within the Kyrielle Sonnet consists of only eight syllables. French poetry forms have a tendency to link back to the beginning of the poem, so common practice is to use the first and last line of the first quatrain as the ending couplet. This would also re-enforce the refrain within the poem. Therefore, a good rhyming scheme for a Kyrielle Sonnet would be: <\/strong><\/font> <\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>AabB, ccbB, ddbB, AB -or- AbaB, cbcB, dbdB, AB<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

I went on a rampage with this format a few years ago. <\/font><\/p>\n

Here are two examples:<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

TELL ME!<\/strong><\/font>
\n
\n <\/font><\/font><\/strong>Oh how it makes me want to scream
\n Jump and slap you right through the screen
\n There \u2018s more than beauty to be seen
\n Please, oh please tell me what you mean<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Blind to the meanings of my writes
\n Why can\u2019t you give me your insight
\n It always makes me cringe and careen
\n Please, oh please tell me what you mean<\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing more for you to say?
\n Are you not moved in any way?
\n Don\u2019t you share the same sorta dreams?
\n Please, oh please tell me what you mean<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Oh how it makes me want to scream
\n Please, oh please tell me what you mean
\n <\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font>Born with a big slaphappy grin,
\n With a soul clean of mortal sin,
\n He arrived backwards, last his mind,
\n Blindsiding sideways from behind.<\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He came out sideways, had to bend,
\n Lucky the portal would wide extend.
\n A birth which soon became enshrined,
\n Blindsiding sideways from behind.<\/p>\n

Due to his weird waving wally,
\n He came out diagonally.
\n Once outside, new talent to find,
\n Blindsiding sideways from behind.<\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Born with a big slaphappy grin,
\n Blindsiding sideways from behind.<\/font> <\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
