People Underestimate Mary's Burden by Ogden
Write a Kyrielle writing prompt entry


Mary had thirteen little lambs;
(In truth, it wasn’t only one.)
Kids made fun when they followed her.
Too many lambs are never fun.

Too many lambs are never fun.
After school they were problems, too:
(Read line four, and I’ll tell you more)
A return trip to mama ewe.

This poem needs another stanza.
Had I known, I’d not have begun.
(That’s exactly how Mary felt.)
Too many lambs are never fun.



Writing Prompt
A kyrielle is made of quatrains (four lines) that rhyme (any rhyme scheme can be used). Each stanza (quatrain) has a line that repeats from the previous stanza. That line is usually the last line in the stanza, but it does not have to be. Each line is made up of eight syllables. There is no limit to the number of stanzas. A Kyrielle is usually made up of three or more stanzas. For this prompt, a minimum of three stanzas is required.
