Do You Villanelle?

Ever tried writing a villanelle? Leave a link to your villanelle in the comments and I'll stop by to check out your work. To read my first one visit The Shores of My Dreams

I have written many Villanelles. Even terzanelles too which is a combination of villanelle and terza rima.

Here:

stonewall Enthrall--Villanelle

Patterned Dreams--Terzanelle

i have written one,, but it seems rather juvenile to even share... i have a hard time making anything meaningful when it is so repetitive...

Have written some earlier but wrote this one just today --
Submerge. Not very happy with it but it's a difficult form so don't know whether it'll ever get to a point where I will be.

Here is a villanelle I wrote a while ago while sitting in our local book store staring out at the Pacific.

I tackled a villanelle a while back, and it kicked my butt, though very much enjoyed what I ended up with. :) But I loved the discipline of it all! Maybe it's time for me to try it out again...

Thank you for dropping by the blog and the lovely comments! Have decided to leave it for the moment and come back to it later to see if I want to change anything.

Hi. I've recently become smitten with the Villanelle form, and created a blog entitled, "The Villanelle". It's at:

http://TheVillanelle.blogspot.com

Check it out if you like. I've made it into a compendium of Villanelles, which includes my own Villanelles as well.
