Wow, this was so hard! I believe this is called a Nonet. I saw it described in author's comment in a challenge. Hawksquaw, your work Inner Grace inspired me to try to do this. If I understood her correctly your first line has to be nine syllables and each line after that one syllable less till you get to only one. Hope I did not miscount! I am not used to being limited to how I place my words. This was a good exercise in restraint! LOL Thanks Hawksquaw for the insight. ~Lesa~
