Spirited From The Guf (A Rondeau) Comments
The rondeau is a three-stanza poem consisting of approximately ten to fifteen lines total, generally with either eight syllables per line or ten. Its distinctive features are the use of only two rhymes throughout the entire poem and a half-line refrain which begins the first stanza's first line and forms the entirety of the second and third stanza's last lines. The rhyme scheme varies with the number of lines. A typical rhyme scheme for a fifteen-line rondeau is aabba aabC aabbaC, where C represents the first half of the rondeau's first line. The refrain does not rhyme with anything else in the poem.

I could be wrong, but I believe there needs to be another line in the second stanza. Whatever that case. I was very impressed with what was there. I liked this very much. It had the music that poems are supposed to have most of the way. I thought it was so good, It deserved a 9. GW62
