The Imayo poetry form has these guidelines. A bit of a tough one 🙂 Also, it’s supposed to be about a bird, and it is: Lovebirds
- 4 lines (8 lines permissible)
- 12 syllables per line divided as 7-5
- make a pause space between the 7 and 5 syllables
As today is our 25th wedding anniversary, I will focus my poem on my wife and I.
The day after I met you, it was clear to me That I would call you up soon: my body shivered And I knew that if I called, destiny calls too And twenty-five years later, destiny rings true
It really has been a wonderful journey, and Patty has been an inspiration, a comfort, and my best friend. This one is for the love of my life! Happy Anniversary Patty!
