ART IN THE MORNING

as the morning sun warms the skin
chasing the frost and dew
art comforts me and welcomes me
I find solace in you

Ballad Stanza
A ballad has many variations of rhyme and line length. The basic Ballad Stanza consists of four lines with an alternating couplet and lines that alternate from four iambic feet to three. This gives a suggested pattern of:


x x x x x x x a
x x x x x b
x x x x x x x c
x x x x x b
