The Poetry Page: On The Bummel with Mrs. Hudson

[scfrankles.livejournal.com]

If anyone has any time this month, Mrs. Turner has arranged a little outing for us all—a wine-tasting at Short’s wine-bar in the Strand!

Emphasis on ‘tasting’, Mrs. Small-Hobbit.

Mrs. Turner will be meeting us there, to guide us through the intricacies of how to recognise a superior wine, and to teach us how to maintain temperance in a world full of intoxicating temptations.

Yes…

Well, before we catch the bus, I will just give you this quotation from Dr. Watson’s story ‘The Noble Bachelor’ to assist in your poetic endeavours:


There were a couple of brace of cold woodcock, a pheasant, a pate de foie gras pie with a group of ancient and cobwebby bottles.



Here are the usual suggestions for poetry forms:

221B verselet, abecedarian poetry, acrostic poetry, alexandrine, ballad, barzelletta, beeswing, blackout poetry, blitz poem, blues stanza, bref double, Burns stanza, call and response, chastushka, cherita, cinquain, circular poetry, clerihew, clogyrnach, colour poems, compound word verse, concrete poetry, Cornish verse, curtal sonnet, débat, décima, descort, diamante, doggerel, double dactyl, echo verse, ekphrasis, elegiac couplet, elegiac stanza, elfje, englyn, enuig, epigram, epistle, epitaph, epulaeryu, Etheree, fable, Fib, florette, found poetry, free verse, ghazal, haiku, hay(na)ku, In Memoriam stanza, Italian sonnet, jueju, kennings poem, lanturne, lies, limerick, line messaging, list poem, lyric poetry, mathnawī, micropoetry, mini-monoverse, musette, nonsense verse, palindrome poetry, pantoum, Parallelismus Membrorum, poem cycle, puente, quatern, quintilla, renga, rhyming alliterisen, riddle, rimas dissolutas, rime couée, rispetto, Schüttelreim, sedoka, septet, sestina, shadorma, sonnet, stream of consciousness, tanka, tercet, terza rima, tongue twister poetry, triangular triplet, tricube, trine, triolet, Tyburn, villanelle, xenolith
