Gwawdodyn Poems On Marriage
The gwawdodyn. A form with a nice and steady rhyme scheme: A, A….wait a sec, let’s insert an internal rhyme B here…back to A. It’s even until it’s not, it’s predictable until it’s not. Thus, I found it to be an ideal form to use when writing about marriage. There is no order to these poems, they are connected only by their theme. One may be true one day, false the next, and vice versa, all year long. They all live in Poetry in Form, but I thought they should have a little home of their own, too. So, here it is.
