this is for the great masses who enjoy diverse forms of poetry. i confess to not being very talented at formulaic verse, since my passion to write is more iconoclastic…preferring poetic fiction, poetic prose, and subject matter inspired by subject or character rather than form. still, i did promise to write some specifically structured verse while http://www.kirstenuninterrupted.wordpress.com – and others- participate in a particular “poetry month.”
i have chosen to write a quintet, a poem containing stanzas or an entire poem of five lines. since i am in no way English, i decided to title this type “Mountain,” as in “Mountaineer,” as in “one from West Virginia.”

MOUNTAIN QUINTET # 1
the red roads round the map of state
and cross the deep divides of form…
splattered with pockets of pea-green paint
lands over which boots and backpacks reign
land of the rhododendron domain.

I was married to a W Va man and enjoyed many parks and scenery in a few different seasons that I traveled there with his kids and mine. Great photos and thanks for the memories! Smiles, Robin
You might not write form often, but you do it extremely well!!! This was great. I enjoyed your word choices. Thank you for the shout out!
