Day 330:
May 26-back to forms, in this case the Harrisham Rhyme, which has the ababab rhyme scheme, each first word is unique in that the last letter of the previous first word is the first letter of the new first word on the next line. This comes from Punjab, in India. The inventor is Harrisham Minhas.
What is a Harrisham Rhyme form like?
Take the last letter, put in first in the next line.
E’en one not Indian, yea a tyke
Not to worry, ababab’s the sign
To make it right, take it down the pike,
Otherwise you might miss making it very fine.
