POPSICLES

In spring, I like licking popsicles,
icy cold, juicy popsicles,
red ones to share with a friend
ones with two wooden sticks
we split them in half
each takes a stick
then a lick
juicy,
friends.


     This is a nonce form called a nonet.  It is made from nine lines, with nine syllables in the first line, and then one less syllable in each subsequent line, ending with a one syllable line.  Your challenge today is to try writing your own nonet.  Have fun.
