Villanelle
This Poem Fails the Villanelle Test
Our life must be more than a test. Aim better and I'm sure that you'll Die glad with loving God impressed. They kept a score when I confessed, But if they're to outsmart the fool, Our life must be more than a test. They seem to know, but only guessed, And it's truly the honest who'll Die glad with loving God impressed. Don't kill delight to be the best. For reverence to conquer drool, Our life must be more than a test. The social ice leads to unrest. Before you linger as a ghoul, Die glad with loving God impressed. Why did I continue drinking beer? Much as I hope the earnest quest, ends gaining more than gold and jewels, Our life must be more than a test. Die glad with loving God impressed.

Medb, Queen of Connacht
Introduction This is my fourth piece inspired by Justine G. Cappelli's gorgeous artwork. Medb is pronounced "Maeve" (/meΙͺv/ or MAY-v). This ancient Irish name, often associated with the mythological Queen of Connacht, derives from Old Irish and corresponds to modern Irish spellings like MΓ©abh or Meadhbh. It is commonly understood to mean "she who intoxicates" or "meadow".

Introduction I have seen lots of posts for Imbolc, which I should have expected given the friends that I have made, but this is the first year that I have been made aware of it. I took the below information from the internet and and will use it along with a painting by my friend The Glittering Fox to create a Villanelle for Imbolc.
