\n<\/font> Friday Fling #132 June 10th 2011<\/font><\/strong><\/font> <\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

You’ve probably noticed that the weather is warm, even if you live in the northern parts of the US or anywhere in Canada.\u00a0\u00a0 If you saw anything about the Fling challenge of two weeks ago, you also know Memorial Day came and went a bit ago, traditionally kicking off the American summer vacationtime.<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

Which means, among other things…picnics!\u00a0\u00a0 Picnics are things a lot of people wait all winter and much of Spring to experience, and by summer they become downright common.\u00a0 So this week we thought that we’d challenge you to write about them, either generically or specifically about one or more that you particularly remember.<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

Now as to format, it should be lengthy enough to allow you to express yourself on the topic and yet adjustable.\u00a0 For that reason and another that will become clear next week, we thought this would be a good time to try the Kyrielle, a format we never have included in a Fling challenge before. <\/font> (NB: The Kyrielle is not exactly the same as the Kyrielle SONNET.)<\/font> Here’s ShadowPoetry.com’s take:<\/font><\/strong><\/font> <\/strong> <\/span><\/font> <\/strong><\/p>\n

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

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

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

A Kyrielle is a French form of rhyming poetry written in quatrains (a stanza consisting of 4 lines), and each quatrain contains a repeating line or phrase as a refrain (usually appearing as the last line of each stanza). Each line within the poem consists of only eight syllables. There is no limit to the amount of stanzas a Kyrielle may have, but three is considered the accepted minimum. Some popular rhyming schemes for a Kyrielle are: aabB, ccbB, ddbB, with B being the repeated line, or abaB, cbcB, dbdB.<\/font><\/p>\n

Mixing up the rhyme scheme is possible for an unusual pattern of: axaZ, bxbZ, cxcZ, dxdZ, etc.
\nwith Z being the repeated line.<\/font><\/p>\n

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

The rhyme pattern is completely up to the poet.

\nMy Bouquet<\/font><\/em><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Some days I sing, some days I cry.
\nMy soul’s the one determines why.
\nSometimes it laughs, sometimes it mourns.
\nOn my bouquet are many thorns.<\/font><\/p>\n

Wake up each day, face a dark cloud.
\nMy happiness wrapped in a shroud.
\nThe day begins; to me it scorns.
\nOn my bouquet are many thorns.<\/font><\/p>\n

Lay down my head, dark nights begun.
\nWith the sad setting of the sun.
\nFrom all my sorrows my heart mourns.
\nOn my bouquet are many thorns.<\/font><\/p>\n
