I always look at your description of the poetic form first so I know what to look for when I read your poetry. The descriptions seem so complicated, but when I read your execution, you make it seem so simple. Here, you tell an entire story in two stanzas. Thanks for your research on this unsuccessful putsch.

    How interesting. I often find that I am in for a lot of head-scratching. Occasionally it goes horribly wrong (Kyrielle) but usually I manage to work things out. I am flattered you consider me a poet. I think it's because I'm not yet that I write such detailed notes (for me for future reference as much as anything else). For Tejerazo, it's a good tale. I wanted to submit it to the story in a rhyming poem contest, but the class teacher wants longer poems for consideration as a story. My five verse Quintilla that I'll be posting soon definitely isn't a story, so I'll be forced to write another one, and that is REALLY taxing. Five different rhyme schemes to use... out of five possibilities. Thanks for your interesting reviews as always. Kate xx

This poem, Tejerazo, reminds some and informs most about this blip in the Spanish governments command some forty years ago. Well rendered here.

We live in a power hungry world, and where I live may very well be the worst of the current bunch. But luckily, the system has so far been able to keep perpetrators in check. Thanks for sharing.

Hello, Katherine, it's wonderful to read your quintilla about the Spanish 'Guarda Civil' attempted military coup. I remember watching it on television. We almost had one in America with former president Trump on January 6th, 2022.

I like the quintilla poetic form. I've been reading the ones from Melissa too. Well done!

Interesting format, interesting words and interesting history as well. It's quite an accomplishment to achieve all that within a quite demanding structure. Well done.

This was cleverly done. You have educated us in an entertaining way. This way the reader is learning without realizing it. The b's & p's are very effective to create the sound effects. Well done.

This is terrific, Kate. You are really writing some fine poetry in your class and what a great way to learn a little history. And this is quite recent too.

Thank you for sharing, and I am looking forward to your next Foreign Form offering. :))

What an interesting topic for a poem. The truth is I didn't know the word Tejerazo. I only remember I was going to my English class and they told us to go home.In my defence I was just a teenager.
Of course the situation was scary, but it was very quickly resolved as you say in your problem.
I always admired King Juan Carlos, it's a pity that in the last few years he has allegedly done quite a few illegal things.
Thanks for sharing and for teaching me a new word.

    Thank you for this fine review. The name Tejerazo for the attempted coup came up on google, and I found it so much more poetic than the numeronym 23-F. The hardest part of writing was working out the origin of this name... How interesting to meet someone who acually knows this event first-hand Kate xx

-You did a good job with the form.
-Effective imagery, rhyme, and story.

and desire to uphold the constitution by King Juan Carlos.
-Well done!

Poetry is never 'wrong'.
It is preferentially challenged.

This is an interesting form, and I enjoyed reading your fine example. As a bonus, I learnt something too! It's interesting to think such things are actually quite recent history.
