yes, it
requires
some skill
to write a
real quadrille;
musical, like
a trill, a thrill
to take up
your best quill
let creative
juices spill;
count each
word,
you will
keep writing
until the
quota of
cuarenta y cuatro
you fill…
then chill.
Chilling at the poets’ pub today, writing quadrilles on the word “spill”.

I like it so much! Good to remember that the words first of all means a dance.

I understand a quadrille is a poetry form consisting of exactly 44 words. Thanks for reading 🙂
