My first attempt at ‘Mirror Oddquain’. Oddquain is a short, usually unrhymed poem consisting of seventeen syllables distributed 1, 3, 5, 7, 1 in five lines only as a poem, developed by Glenda L. Hand. Mirror oddquains – a two stanza oddquain sequence of the pattern 1/3/5/7/1 1/7/5/3/1. Thank you much Goutam for imparting the knowledge of this verse to us.
