第一眼看到这首时，吓了一大跳，我还以为是“十四行”呢！十四行跟汉语格律诗一样，要求可严，还未曾写过。
仔细一看，诗节和音步不是十四行的格式，再一数，13行，哈。
' l+ H7 r1 y8 p. r$ x8 p你可以尝试写一下“十四行”，感觉你的诗感还是很不错的。

给你一点资料:

* X" e& G( `# F英文诗的形式

包括英语在内，欧洲许多语言的格律诗大多起源于意大利，十四行诗无疑是其中最著名的一种。十四行诗原本是一种“诗节”（组成较长诗歌的格式相同的段落），但在意大利、法国和英国，却很早就被用来写作独立的抒情诗。

0 K2 ^# `! n, r严格的十四行诗由一个八行诗节和一个六行诗节组成，每行均为抑扬格、五音步诗行。需要注意的是，英诗从意大利学来的还有一种叫做“三韵诗（terza rima）”的诗节，每一诗节12行，但丁的《神曲》就是用它写成的。

( D" n5 o+ b, m( ^, X雪莱五首《西风颂》主要部分也用这种诗节写成，然后以一个对句结束，这样每首诗便有14行。三韵诗的韵式是“aba bcb cdc ded”，雪莱《西风颂》第一首就是如此，读者不难看出它是三行一“旋回”，“旋回”间且有依次导出的关系。由于交替使用了不同的音，整个诗节读起来显得有规律而又有变化，不呆板。
0 m) j3 F1 p% D" e0 @1 o: i6 k
6 l! E+ w, \7 R. `" s/ m6 T结束每首（或者每章）的对句，意思上似乎可看作该首的“小结”，而在格律上也自成单元。对句是最简单、仅由尾韵相同或相近的两个诗行组成的诗节，通常不单独成诗。在英国著名诗人里，大概只有18世纪的蒲柏（Alexander Pope，1688-1744）写过这种仅有两个诗行的“对句诗”，言简意赅，常常被引作“警句”。
8 T3 M7 Q& @) M# r$ m
# Q" ^3 _. s( N. z1 a- V) P! p意大利十四行诗分为两段，先八后六。前八句韵牌是abba， abba。后六句有两种，cdecde， 或者cdccdc。第九句不止改韵牌，很多时候题目或感觉也不一样。
