You're sipping lemonade that's ****,
But cool and sweet just like your heart,
Life's sorrows and storm you depart;
It is not ****, it is not ****.

You are sipping cold lemonade,
At least that is what you just said,
You are sipping it in the shade;
Sip it in shade, sip it in shade.

Lemonade in homemade in iced tea,
Lemonade tastes very sweetly,
It is a lovely treat for me;
Ineffably, ineffably.

Lemonade isn't ever ****,
Lemonade is like your sweet heart,
I've loved lemonade from the start;
I love lemonade I impart.

The monotetra is a new poetic form developed by Michael Walker. Each stanza contains four lines in monorhyme. Each line is in tetrameter (four metrical feet) for a total of eight syllables. What makes the monotetra so powerful as a poetic form, is that the last line contains two metrical feet, repeated. It can have as few as one or two stanzas, or as many as desired.

Stanza Structure:

Line 1: 8 syllables; A1
Line 2: 8 syllables; A2
Line 3: 8 syllables; A3
Line 4: 4 syllables, repeated; A4, A4
