Nature's Gift

This is a rhyming nonet about Nature.

Nature's Gift

 

Gentle zephyrs sing sweet lullabies.

to Nature's gem embedded skies.

No design lifts Nature's guise

more than her winking eyes.

Now the Moon shall rise,

bright and full size,

with her prize

of wise

ties.

I'm here Aethereal just figuring this one out. The stars in heaven sparkles and twinkles like a diamond in the skies. I remember a nursery rhymes . This is sweet short and lovely Aethereal ...

Thanks for reviewing my rhyming geometric Nonet, Neil. The stars are Nature's winking eyes as seen from Earth. They wink at Earth as the nuclear sisters of the Sun.

You are welcome ..Now you are giving me a hint and a tour to your composition I love and appreciate that Aethereal.

You've said too much only in 9 lines... isn't it !!
liked this piece and it's a nice one, your format seemed amazing, writing style's totally diff. from your other writes, overall enjoyed this piece and loved this piece as well. I love the tittle too.
Beautiful work, you made my evening.

Thanks, Inspiring Writer! A rhyming nonet is one of the rarest poetic forms. I write them because I can't find 'em anywhere else other than in my mind. Perhaps I'll write a whole book of 'em some day.

[Inspiring Writer]

Your welcome!
If you write one book on 'em one day, don't forget to let me know! Yeh, at an extent i can believe on you, you write ffrom your mind and from your hands... but i'd like to say, you too write ffrom your Heart... don't you!
i can smell the scent of your poems which always tells me something in deep about life. Like if we take an example of your this write "Nature's Gift"... what's here in it to know.. everyone knows about it... but they don't know about it's depth that you know, that you drop always.

Beautiful form! I have never trid a nonet. This was a joy to read! Angi~

[Aethereal]

Thanks, Angi! I don't know of anyone else in the world who has ever written a perfect rhyming nonet whereby every rhyme word is a different word and a perfect rhyme with all the others. I keep looking. It must also make logical sense.

Awesome words and metaphors...Thank you for sharing...:)

[Aethereal]

Thanks, Sami! Perhaps I should write a rhyming nonet with words such as pugnacious and peripatetic since most writers on here enjoy reading such words instead of (Dick and Jane) words such as sat, cat, rat, and tat. Large syllable words would mean that I'd need only one or two words per line. In this case my nonets would be small and the rhyme would need to fall on the next to the last syllable being that all the endings would be more or less the same. The bottom of the nonet would need to be one, two , three, and four syllable words which would be difficult to rhyme with the longer syllable words.

Wow. Good to know...You are welcome...:)

Really excellent - perfect nonet form, and I am truly impressed with your consistent rhyme! Well done!

[Aethereal]

Thanks Rita! I was inspired by the word "lullabies" in conjunction with natural events. All the other words crystalized around this word within my mind.
