Re: What form do you like the most?13 Years AgoI prefer anything that is metric. Trochaic feet are great to impart a sense of urgency. I've never written in dactyls, but they sound great.
But to be specific, Terza Rima and Villanelle are great. |

Haiku, Tanka, Climbing Rhyme, Bref Double.13 Years AgoI seem to like poetry formats from other languages. Haiku and Tanka from Japan, Climbing Rhyme from Burma, Bref Double from France! :)

Re: What form do you like the most?13 Years Agohmmmm, that's a toughie, like asking which is your fav kid...I'd have to go with Poetcipers and vote for old reliable Sonnet (English), but I prefer iambic pentameter because it's less sing-songy and more flexible (same reason I prefer English to Italian sonnet). Though I tend to mix it up at the end because I think ending with rhyming couplets is a bit too neat...
