An Intense Attraction (Rondelet)

by Italian Stallion   Dec 3, 2006


An intense attraction
To you I know.
An intense attraction
That lies deep within,
Waiting to grow.
Don't you know it's starting to show,
An intense attraction.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Rondelet is a French form consisting of a single septet with two rhymes and one refrain:
AbAabbA. The capital letters are the refrains, or repeats. The refrain is written in tetra-syllabic
or dimeter and the other lines are twice as long - octasyllabic or tetrameter.
