Thank you. Yes, syllabic structures are fun. I forgot to include the link to where I learned that form. I found it at Poet’s Collective. Here’s the link: http://poetscollective.org/poetryforms/?s=pi+archimedes. Have a great day!

Thank you, dear Lynn. My impression of this form… When I was done, first I thought, “Is that all? It’s so short.” But then I read through it several times and thought, “Yes, that says it all. There is no need for more.”
