So you've reached my little part of the woods...

Well, since you're interested, my name is Jazzie.

Writing is my passion. When I get the chance, I write original things ranging from poems, to short stories, to pieces of a novel my best friend and i are working on. Do me a favor and leave a reveiw. Tell me if you love or hate my work, be honest and constructive, not vulgar and rude. And I promise if you reveiw me, I'll reveiw you.

I had to make up my own form of poetry for my recent Creative Writing class and here's what i came up with:

Repercussus Poetry:

Repercussus poetry is a very simple form of poetry. “Repercussus” is a word in Latin that means reflection. This type of poetry has no set content although mostdescribe something, tell a story, or express an emotion. It follows a specific rhyme scheme of: ABxb, BAxa, ABb, where A and a rhyme and B and b is a separate rhyme. A and B will alternate as the first two lines of each stanza creating the reflection. The x represents the only line in each stanza that does not rhyme with anything else within the poem. A repercussus poem is only eleven lines long. It is separated into three stanzas. The first two stanzas each have four lines and the third only has three.
