Linda G. Hill has challenged us with another prompt for
JusJoJan using the word “captivating”.
Here is my submission – a Dectina Refrain.
This refrain is written as follows:
1st line – 1 syllable, 2nd line – 2 syllables
3rd line – 3 syllables, and so on for 9 lines;
the 10th line is comprised of the first four lines
as one stand-alone line.
Eyes
of green
like the sea
captivating

with every crashing wave.
Those eyes frighten and thrill me.
Should I run to them or from them?
The heady allure outweighs the fear.
Eyes of green like the sea captivating.
