In Rondeau Form

In rondeau form, write's neat they say,
but not as neat as triolets
both quicker writ than villanelles
their nineteen lines drag me to hell
and, whip me each word of the way.
 
A fine rondeau by John MaCrae
"In Flanders Fields" puts on display
an all-roundness when wrote quite well
In rondeau form.
 
Its fifteen lines and one refrain
can be used when there's hell to pay
as with Flanders Field's screaming shells
and just at home in leafy dells,
or, like this, when I wish to play
In rondeau form...
