how to write a music decima in english?
choose one for your décima:
I love Caribbean music (or)
This music class is loads of fun (or)
Cuatro, güiro, and the bongó (or)
Décimas are super easy (or)
I can’t wait until vacation (or)
After choosing one of these to be your pie forzado (which will be the final line of your décima) you will have to create 9 lines that precede it.
You have to write a poem with 10 lines, only 8 syllables per line.
The last syllable of lines 1, 4, and 5 must rhyme (A).
The last syllable of lines 2 and 3 must rhyme (B).
The last syllable of lines 6, 7, and 10 must rhyme (C).
Finally, the last syllable of lines 8 and 9 must rhyme (D).
So the rhyme scheme is: ABBAACCDDC
If you use the last line “I love Caribbean music” then line 6 and 7 must have a last syllable that rhymes with “ic”, maybe pick, tick, sick, etc
