Day 106:

Oct 14-Caudette Sonnet, -standard sonnet with tail of 3 extra lines ghh.
So how to make a Caudette type sonnet?
It’s easy if you simply just know how.
The secret you must keep in your bonnet.
So are you ready? I will show you how.

Just take a sonnet like one from Shakespeare
Or make it up yourself  if you choose to.
So go and fill the poem without fear
And then you will surely be almost through.

Iambic pentameter the meter
Abab, cdcd you start
Efef, careful don’t peter
For you have a last phrase to then impart.

For ggghh then closes the frame.
So carefully craft or then take the blame.
Yes, thank you kindly for playing the game.
The Caudette Sonnet is ready for you.
Take sonnet, then add it, and you are through.
