Stars Dance – a Kyrielle Sonnet
Stars dance to music of the spheres
within dark energy’s ballroom
swaying through dark matter that’s there.
Gravity’s pull makes them dance.
In a vacuum their music sounds
mathematical, oh what gloom–
scientific, describes the boom.
Gravity’s pull makes them dance.
Colliding stars send shock waves out
shaking the the long cosmic ballroom,
the microwave background plays out–
Gravity’s pull makes them dance.
Stars dance to music of the spheres–
Gravity’s pull makes them dance.

This was really hard. Not sure I’ll try this one again unless I need a poetic torture device 😉 I like Shakespearean sonnets (as you know). I tried this for Bastet’s Kyrielle Sonnet prompt on Mindlovesmisery’s Menagrie.

You did better than I can. As a matter of fact, you did very well! I may still try as you’ve inspired me!

Thank you! It was hard. I hope you have an easier time that I did. I found the rhyme scheme particularly challenging (and confusing)

This morning, I decided not to do it due to time issues I’m having. I will another day though!

Let me get back to you as soon as I look up, read, and understand a Kyrielle sonnet. 🙂 Then maybe I’ll try too. (You know I will) 😉
