Write A Rondeau
Here are the rules on how to write a Rondeau from Poets.org: https://poets.org/glossary/rondeau ..............Have at it!
French cooking
At a loss, i stand, with nothing to show
pathetic , i struggle, no glimmer or glow,
in this life there seems much to regret,
what foul beast, it grows strong in neglect,
what can i do 'bout this Rondeau?
searchinng high , and then sometimes low,
composing some, that you shall not throw,
but the form's so complex, a subtle French sauce,
leaves me frustrated, despairing, and much at a loss,
what shall i do with this thin-ice rondeau?
it is not like in music, of that i do know,
from Bach to Brubeck the pattern across,
a base and a radical form to engross,
but poetry's rules in artfulness grow
so tell if this works, or if it's a loss.
