Hello! Welcome to the first batch of poems written for round twelve of
Iron Poet, the game where you give me three words and then go off to do something else while I slog through the roughly thirty thousand requests to give you a poem. Okay, not really, but sometimes it can feel that way. Please note that some rounds of Iron Poet can take a very long time to finish --
Iron Poet X ran from May 2006 to October 2007 -- so don't worry if your request seems to be taking a while; I get to them all eventually. It's just sometimes very eventual.
Today's poems include:
*
Apple for
fireriven. (Free verse.)
*
Caution for
thnidu. (Rhyming verse.)
*
Cycles for
aedifica. (Villanelle.)
*
Benediction for
pensnuggles. (Rhyming verse.)
*
Widows for
bayushi. (Rhyming verse.)
*
Snow White's Lament On Waking for
archangelbeth. (Song form.)
*
Wine, and Warnings for
libgirl. (Free verse.)
*
Karma for
valkyrwench. (Free verse.)
*
Caution for
kyrielle. (Rhyming verse.)
*
Instructor's Mantra for
quadrivium. (Welsh chain poem.)
This round is CLOSED to new submissions. I'll be opening a new round...someday. When I finish the various other things I have pending, and my personal madness allows.
