Create and sing!
Your mind has wings from Music wrought
In an eye's blink to being brought in Timeless Hall
What you can think to the last dot, that I will call to make a world
                  The horse's trott, the fir-trees tall, the heat and cold
                                        The creatures small, and big and bold
                                                                    Just as I've told:

                                                                                   Eä! Be!
The 5th poem for :iconnapowrimo2012: (The 4th is in Slovak)

This is an experiment with form - as you can see, I like rhymes :)
Let's call it (=mrnakes' suggestion) a diagonal. A tutorial is here: [link]

The rhyming scheme is

a
a b
a b c
a b c d
...b c d
......c d
.........d

with every rhyme containing of 4 syllables.

Love the Tolkien Poetry.  I was working on a symphony in highschool and college called "Iluvatar's Theme".
