The "Waltmarie" is a two-in-one poem invented by Candice Kubinec. It's a ten-lined poem, where odd lines have no specific syllabic count, meaning the poet writes in as many or as little syllables as desired. Even lines are written in 2 syllables and create a "mini poem" if read apart. There are no rules for rhyme or subject - the option is left to the poet to choose whether to rhyme or not. In December, we offered this challenge to our Facebook group members and out of 13 entries we chose 6 poets to be featured.
"Untitled"
Singing the song of my life
feel it
I digress it's a smile on my heart
often
With a note of stolid, reminding me of
the moon
Not a selcouth fact that my soul
speaking
But I went on my path to feel in

"Night Divine"
Oh, holy night someone cried stolid
Fall on
Beyond magic outside selcouth heights
Your knees
Enable pronounced peace denied
Hear the
Spirits digress emboldened divine
Angel
Likened to heaven wending wings above cry
Voices

"Untitled"
You always tell me you love me but Your eyes
Digress what you profess, your actions
Never
Could hide the tale of stolid promises that most times
Reflect
The wend of some selcouth intentions,
The words
You utter could not convince me to believe in what
You say

"Ennui"
The tedious hours tick into a dreary day
Listless
Amidst the humdrum, into relevance I digress
Waiting
This stolid countenance, unnerving and stale
Calls for
Something that wends the mind to connect
A spark
In the doldrums, a selcouth feeling aroused
To last

"Stolid"
The sound of the moonlight in hopeless night
Digress
Thoughts setting in such wend
Whispers
Soaring higher by such undying doubts
Until
It's me, in selcouth and wandering
I smile
In the approaching moments of dawn
At last
