Nonets All Round

Hello Poetry Lovers

I thought we’d turn to the Nonet form this time. 9 lines, 9 syllables the first line, 8 the next….well, you get the gist. Great fun to do and it makes a fantastic structure.

These are my attempts – and this time Dobby is not featured! She gets enough attention as it is! Dobby is not happy about this, so I’d better lay low!

Nonet to Sue

I’m not allowed to the school disco

My parents don’t like my mate Sue

but mind you, she’s terrible

flirts with boys in Capri’s

Mum says she will get

a murky name

I don’t care

Sue is

cool!!

A Kid’s Nonet

When I was a kid, I’d scream and shout

Create a mess around the house

When my Mum sent me outside

I’d start a fight with Linda

she ran off crying

So I went home

Ate burnt toast

And then

Bed

I hope you liked these, PL’s, and please send any in of your own. We’ll be back with more poetry action real soon…
