Friday Fling #194 August 24th 2012<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

This week on Friday we’re gonna Fling it
\nand let you go ahead and wing it.
\n Anything goes as far as a subject;<\/font>
\nNone will be frowned on or labeled a reject
\nas long as it is not too rudely crude
\nto make readers spew coffee recently brewed.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

So take out your museable mighty cerebrum,
\ncontemplate something poetically yum yum.
\nLay it upon us to partake this day,
\nto bring out the sunshine and chase away gray.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

We’re thinking to increase this challenge’s strength,
\nwe suggest that you write in a form with some length.
\nOne format our founder thought was quite swell;
\nso we recommend you write a Villanelle! <\/font><\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Shadow Poetry.com notes: A Villanelle is a nineteen-line poem consisting of a very specific rhyming scheme: aba aba aba aba aba abaa.
\nThe first and the third lines in the first stanza are repeated in alternating order throughout the poem, and appear together in the last couplet (last two lines).<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

This week the Friday Fling wings it to Villanellaville!<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Be sure to save time to read and comment tellingly on your fellow Pals’ winged wonders. Then go enjoy the weekend in your own special way!<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Nibblin a doughnut
\nplantin my round butt
\noffice chair’s squeakin its needin some oil
\nStrummin my keyboard
\nPlayin my muse chord
\nSmellin the coffee beginnin to boil<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

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

Chorus:
\nWritin away again in Villanellaville
\nSearching for my last musings of soul
\nSome people claim that I’ve got rhymes on the brain
\nBut I know, that it’s just how I roll.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
