The HexSonnetta, devised by Andrea Dietrich, consists of fourteen lines, similar to the Sonnet, arranged in stanzas of 6, 6, 2 lines. The lines have six syllables per line (iambic trimeter for the purists among us) and a rhyme scheme of abbaab cddccd ee, as described and demonstrated in the following links: http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/hexsonnetta.html https://www.poetrymagnumopus.com/topic/1195-forms-unique-to-shadow-poetry/#hex http://www.rainbowcommunications.org/velvet/forms/HexSonnetta.pdf Dave "The Poet's Place " |
