Battle of the Sexes
Definitely in women's minds, men's promises are over-rated
Defiantly inside his head, he does not know she's aggravated
Assuredly her telling him not to call was not translated
Reluctantly he turns away for their love is terminated
Rich Man, Poor Man
Prince
wealthy, regal
warring, wenching, plotting

December Form Challenge, 2012
The first poem is a Magali Shairi - a Georgian form which features stanzas of 4-lines long and 16 syllables per stanza. The syllables are divided up into 4 syllabic lots and each line follows a mono rhyme of at least 2
syllables. There are virtually no examples as far as written poems, so I am not sure if I did this correctly.
The second poem is a Diamante. It is written like this:
Noun
Adjective, Adjective
Verb, Verb, Verb
Noun, Noun, Noun, Noun
Verb, Verb, Verb
Adjective, Adjective
Noun
It is generally done with opposites/antonyms in mind.

You could put these all together; they'd make the perfect poetry book for teaching purposes. The instructions are exactly long enough to provide the outline without boring the crap out of your average teen, and your examples are just the sorts of things to inspire those that would be inspired. Throw in the bawdy limericks, and you've totally got it covered!
Something to think about.
Also. Thanks for the lessons!
