Sometimes lows, they pull me under
Drowning, sinking in tears.
Then in clouds, hear laughter thunder
From depths, releasing fears.

A Balladette. Just for fun, I thought I’d pick up on the suggestion from the Elopefromharm blog. He calls this style of poem a balladette. A style he believes to be originally his own, something he came up with. He suggested his readers try one. This is mine.
This is brilliant. Hope you enjoyed writing a balladette. Immediately it shows variation in the way that I write them as I always seem to write in iambs. You have created a totally different rhythm which works really well. I’m definitely going to experiment more with them. Thanks for the inspiration.
