A Rondel
A chapter in the book Little Poems
Children at the Playground
by Treischel
The children at the playground swing As parents share in their delights While keeping them within their sights To make sure each one safely clings. The joy that soaring heights can bring Reflects on face when push excites. The Children at the playground swing As parents share in their delights. It starts with gentle upward fling, Increasing with progressive might To pleas for more from little sprits, Believing it's the greatest thing The children at the playground swing. |
Parents and Children at the playground swings. Kids love to swing. Some can do it themselves. Others need a parents push. "Higher mommy. Higher".
This poem is a Rondel.
Rondel:This poem is the similar to the Rondeau poem. The first and second lines repeat in the middle of the poem and at the end. Although, only the first line repeats at the end. It uses only two rhymes (an a and b rhyme)throughout.
The rhyme scheme is normally:
ABba abAB abbaA(B).
There is no hard requirement for set meter, although for this poem I used iambic tetrameter.
The picture was taken by the author himself at Pearl Park playground in the Diamond Lake area of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
