Spellbound (Fibonacci).

by Steven Beesley   Jun 4, 2012


Spellbound

Can
you
see that
I truly
am spellbound to thee
bewildered by your sweet beauty
I am utterly betwitched by your sweet charm and grace

My princess come hither and betrove your love to me
Only you can release the spell
which binds me to you
forever
in love
I
am

**Fibonacci
The number of syllables in each line must equal the sum of the syllables in the two previous lines. So, start with 0 and 1, add them together to get your next number, which is also 1, 2 comes next, then add 2 and 1 to get 3, and so on. Fibonnaci: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, ... Poetry: 1 syllable, 1 syllable, 2 syllables, 3 syllables, 5 syllables, 8 syllables, 13 syllables, 21 syllables...
