Ronovan Décima Poetry Challenge #14
“Bird” In A rhyme line

La Poesía Dice “Beep-Beep”
In the comics beep-beep is heard
Just two words and the hero’s found.
With a roadrunner’s trademarked sound
Coyote is shaken and quite stirred
In the comics there is a bird
Known for agility and speed,
He fights for justice, never greed.
Acme’s anvils and TNT
Always ordered by the coyote
Will never work that’s guaranteed!

“Décima” (also known as Espinel) is a Spanish style or form of musical poetry that contains 10 lines of eight syllables.
The style has a rhyming pattern of abbaaccddc. Sometimes you break the stanza up in abba/accddc.
The abba/accddc requires either a period or semicolon after the fourth line break.

Ha. So far I’m being surprised by the poems for this one. First a depressing one, and now this. Thank goodness I’m going in order. 🙂
It’s always been my dream to use Beep-Beep in a poem. Now if only there was an easy word for describing the sound of a falling anvil…
I like the remembrance of coyote, that Acme company and the roadrunner.
This is fun and made me smile!
