	Here goes...... Snowflakes delicately dance in pretty dresses of white. Floating in a sparkling trance snowflakes delicately dance. The landscapes they enhance giving small children delight. Snowflakes delicately dance in pretty dresses of white.

	Thanks Daniel, I just might do that. I am enjoying learning more about the different forms. I've done a few and really think their discipline is quite helpful. Now if only I can do Clementine (Norm's Lesson 3) ! Lucy

	Just had to give this a try. To A Grandson Just Turned Fifteen Young man, you must not carry on this way, You're hurt, bewildered, but you will not die. Believe me, you will love again one day. Young man, you must not carry on this way. Oh, yes, I know, her smile is like a ray of sun, she's lovely as a butterfly . . . Young man you must not carry on this way. You're hurt, bewildered, but you will not die. Lucy

	Alas, no date… Alas, no date for my sweet lips to taste; perhaps my life ain’t even worth a fig. Those dromedary humps in arid waste… allass… no date.... For my sweet lips to taste unending liquid kisses, I’d shun haste to reach oasis love… yes, those unchaste attempts to grow a palm from but a twig… alas, no date for my sweet lips to taste; perhaps my life ain’t even worth a fig. _{© MLee Dickens'son 16 Feb 2004} ... and I know that it's a line 'too-long' :lol: I was even more impulsive back then than I am now! Lightly, Daniel 8)

	Samantha Rocks Sam’s got the deep solid soul that’s beamish and bright in her eyes. She’s loyal and rocks right into role. Sam’s got the deep solid soul. The sum of two hearts making whole and it’s clear her star’s on the rise. Sam’s got the deep solid soul that’s beamish and bright in her eyes. For Samantha Peel from Pen

	Heir to Falsies Be glad you've teeth to brush and hair to comb; beware the ogre who'd take both away. So brush and comb before you leave your home; be glad you've teeth to brush and hair to comb. One day it could get shiny on your dome, and you may bite on falsies ere you're gray. Be glad you've hair to brush and teeth to comb; beware the ogre who'd take both away. © MLee Dickens'son 02 Mar 2007 ... and be glad that you're not... Smart Alex or Molly Coddlers Grampa Norm will explain. deLightingly, Rabbi Daniel 8)

	Note: You know I am away in Seattle. My grandchildren out here are home-schooled and I always teach them poetry when I come out here. Today I taught them the Triolet. So I am posting this for them (they are not quite at the age limit to belong to Poem Train...Alex and Molly (age 8 and 7) wrote this together after the lesson. My Strawberry Toothpaste - A Triolet I like my strawberry toothpaste. I use it every night. I must not brush in haste; I like my strawberry toothpaste. Without brushing, my teeth will waste, And they'll be an ugly sight. I like my strawberry toothpaste. I use it every night. © Alex & Molly Engelberg

	Betwixt & Between An angel of darkest gossamer sings with velvet dress twirling betwixt & between her bare feet step light, as the chill of earth stings an angel of darkest gossamer sings sweet filigree mine, what light your heart brings your shadow path home is the sweet evergreen an angel of darkest gossamer sings with velvet dress twirling betwixt & between © Sasha ‘06

	Thanks for the refresher, Daniel. Form follows dys-func-shen. Free of verse leaves many speech-less. ~tim

	Ill Triolet I’ll try! “Oh, let the lines just flow!” you say. That seems to work for you, but not for me. Perhaps in time I’ll write free verse; today I’ll triolet the lines. “Just flow!” you say? But how, without some form? It feels okay at times, but then I lose it. Help me see! “I’ll try; oh let the lines just flow!” You say that seems to work? . . . for you, but not for me. © MLee Dickens'son 05 July 2003
