The Waltz Wave

Valerie of murisopsis introduced this form of poetry to me and I thought I would take a chance and try it out. Thanks Valerie! https://murisopsis.wordpress.com/tag/waltz-wave/
This is a new to me form called a Waltz Wave. It was developed by Leo Waltz. It is a syllabic form with a title and 19 lines. The subject should be calming. The syllabic pattern is: 1/2/1/2/3/2/1/2/3/4/3/2/1/2/3/2/1/2/1. Words may be split to fit the pattern.

The End of Summer

the
end of
the
summer
means so much
when we
think 
of all
the things we
forgot to do
while we 
had the 
chance
to sit
and ponder
the world
and 
all that’s 
left
