Lux Seastina
This is for the Vocal "Light Breaks Water" Challenge
Introduction
For this challenge, I will use the Sestina form that you can read about here. Blame Vocal because it is on the list of poetry forms and is my third Sestina. I use the same rhyme for every line because the switching of the words would make it impossible, unless I decided to go non-rhyming, but I always make things difficult for myself.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it β and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

Absolutely beautiful. The rhyme scheme is perfect throughout and the imagery exquisite.
Lovely, Mike. Very lovely
This is truly lovely. Well done.
Love the magical feel of your poem Mike π
This reads very beautiful and poetic. I should explore this poetic form. I like how it rhymes.
Well done, Mike. I loved it. I always think rhyme helps a poem bounce along or float along through the different lines.
Sparkling impenetrable.
Beautiful! Magical and what a grateful way to say thank you to our Creator
Artistic and lyrical π
