Poetry of the Seasons

In class we have been writing poetry about the seasons here in Casper. The whole thrust of the poems is for people from different parts of the world to be able to experience our seasons through poetry. For each season we used a different type of poem.
For Spring we used a quatern. This is simply four quatrains of poetry using an AABB rhyming pattern. The tricky part is the repetion we employed. The first line in the first quatrain is the second line in the second, third line in the third and fourth line in the fourth quatrain.
For summer we chose the Nonet. A nonet begins with a nine syllable line, the second line is 8 syllables, third is 7 etc. on down to a one syllable final line.
The Autumn poem was a Richtometer. This poem starts with a 2 syllable word. The next line is 4 syllables, the third line is 6 syllables. Next is an 8, then 10. The poem now goes back down 8, 6, 4, 2.
For winter we wrote free verse. I attached my movie to this blog. Check it out I hope you enjoy it./Users/theobaldt/Desktop/four seasons poetry.mov
