Recently I've been reading about the poetic form 'magic 9'. It uses an abacadaba rhyme scheme. I don't think the metre is restricted, so I've chosen to alternate between 5-syllable and 7-syllable lines. Interested to get feedback on that choice. Below is my 1st, quick attempt at writing in this form.
cosy evening in
while wind howls all round outside
sing with kith and kin
games together in the warm
no matter: lose/win
we discuss weather always
laughing at rain, Lynn!
watch the fire burn: it's Yuletide
wine, whiskey or gin?
