Week 14 Form: Dizain
Form: Dizain  


Number of lines: 10 (one 10-lined stanza)


Rules:
The Dizain gets us back in the French form domain, which as regular readers know is a favorite of mine. This particular form was a favorite of 15th and 16th-century French poets, but it has also been employed in English by the likes of Philip Sidney and John Keats.

Here are the basic rules of the Dizain:

*Bulletr* One 10-line stanza
*Bulletr* 10 syllables per line
*Bulletr* Employs the following rhyme scheme: ababbccdcd

Choices for the poet this week:
Your poem may be on any subject Have fun!



An adorable siggy from Adrie!
