Fairy Fun

by Bucketlist

Imagination's good 'tis said
I see fairies inside my head
Riding on strong unicorn steeds
Their delicate wings for needs to go fly instead

The grotto where my dream abides
Is my place for fantasy rides
I've wings of hues, long hair of red
Blue thread of a stream, tinkling song, stress then subsides

I see myself as fairy queen
In the grotto always so green
The leader of butterfly groups
My fragile form guarded by troops saving the scene

Whenever I can daydream, I do
Visit the place where you can too
Just close your eyes so you can be
Where the scenario you see you'll know is true




Florette
The Florette, created by Jan Turner, consists of TWO or MORE 4-line stanzas.

Rhyme scheme: a,a,b,a
Meter: 8,8,8,12
Fourth line requirement of internal (b) rhyme scheme, on syllable 8.

Like the outgrowing of a small flower, the fourth line of each stanza is longer, and enwraps the previous lines.

Line #4 requires an INTERNAL RHYME scheme that RHYMES the 8th syllable with the END of LINE #3, and continues to add on four more syllables than the other lines so that the FOURTH LINE END RHYMES with LINES #1 AND #2.
