Today's challenge, the Julain

It's an invented form, one I've been toying with for a couple of years. I named it after me because I have no imagination whatsoever and didn't want it to be a Cartrain which is uncomfortably close in connotation to a convoy and would give me nightmares.


A Julain is:

a 3-line poem
with a discernible meter
rhymed ABB


For example:

Legend

Someone like you must lie here. Roses thrive,
their petals red as meat and slick with oil,
given sufficient acid in the soil.

Today's challenge: Write a Julain.

I've posted this challenge at pffa before, if you want to cheat, er, I mean get inspired.

If you write a Julain, don't throw it away. Later, I will reveal the second part of the challenge.

If you've never written in meter or rhyme before, this is a good way to start. You only need one rhyme, and the poem will be short enough that you can't go too far astray.
