So, this is a form I read about in a list of poetic forms and it was intriguing. It is based on a rhyme scheme that is (sort of) like the word abracadabra, you simply remove the r’s. I was also reading about several forms that include refrains. As it turns out this form is conducive to a refrain (of a sort).
Here’s what I jotted today:
Magic
There is magic in her eyes,
I can see it in the dark.
It’s there with no disguise
but you must look close to see it.
It will take you by surprise,
and catch you unaware.
To ignore it would be unwise,
as it will leave an indelible mark.
There is magic in her eyes.
