NaPoWriMo 2014 Day 15


Today's prompt is to write a poem in Terza Rima.  It consists of three-line stanzas, with a "chained" rhyme scheme. The first stanza is ABA, The second is BCB, the third is CDC and so on.  A common way of ending a Terza Rima poem is with a single line standing on its own, rhyming with the middle line of the preceding three-line stanza. This looks fairly interesting so I thought I'd give it a try.....

It was a strange and quiet day
and i didn't have a plan
nor anything to say

but then i nearly ran
with certainly no reason
when i saw that man

what an odd season
