Andy - here are a few links to the sestets we are studying this day. Golly! Are there EVER plenty of sestet forms! Still searching diligently for the Celtic background which, by the way, Wikpedia has literally nothing found! Huh. So here are some links - hope it helps somewhat/somehow!

http://www.thepoetsgarret.com/sestet.html

http://www.thepoetsgarret.com/2009Challenge/form15.html (with some discussion of Irish evolution involving Celtic form)
oetscollective.org/poetryforms/tag/irish/ (Interesting stuff! Here I quote this site discussing in CELTIC the evolving derivatives of the forms we study/write with this day. ----- "Trian Rannaigechta Moire is a dan direach meter of ancient Celtic or Irish Verse Forms written in short lines with consonant rhyme, cywddydd (harmony of sound) and dunadh (beginning and ending the poem with the same word, syllable or phrase.")

http://poetscollective.org/poetryforms/tag/celtic/ - the Coronach form discussed here; I am learning about my Celtic heritage at a fantastic rate!

https://books.google.com/books?id=ujgakwvyP20C&pg=PA31&lpg=PA31&dq=Celtic+sestet... ------ (Good general background for the serious student of Irish/Celtic writings in poetic forms! VAST amounts!)

Have a great day, Andy! Hope this brought some light in on this ancient, ancient art! Back to writing I go!! *Bigsmile* - Doc
