The 99 Poem Challenge
Fox-Trot-958. Dizain — My Judy Windermere
My feisty poetess, my Windermere,
Why stir the angry passions of your pride?
I've seen upon those lips a subtle sneer,
Lacing your words with gall as if to hide
A hidden trace of sadness deep inside;
I've loved you since I drew your lovely face
With all the care that time cannot erase:
So why persist in your indignant smirk?
Why churn the selfish waters of disgrace?
Why falsify the beauty of my work?(To be continued...)
A/N: The Dizain is a French 10-line form, originally made up of eight syllable lines, but later ten syllable lines were also used.
Meter: Iambic pentameter or iambic tetrameter
Ryme: ababbccdcdNote: Judy Windermere is an original character from my story-in-progress, The Late Bird's Tale. I drew the accompanying picture. My drawing skills are...okay, I think. ( <_< )
