Sarah, I'm so glad you shared this and the background and inspiration for the poem. The rhyme scheme is very clever - yes, you should coin a rhyme scheme term--the Oyela???--and paints a lovely, quiet picture. Happy (almost!) summer break!
Mark, that’s interesting. Do you have any examples / links to the Welsh forms that you’re thinking about? Hmmmm, maybe that’s where it’s form name ought to be coined!? 🤔😊

Thanks for your advice (to share the background on the poem), and for taking the time to read, and the well wishes for summer break. 😊
Enjoyed your poem and the explanation for form that followed
Thanks for reading, fellow poet! 😊
Nice work with the form! It has the feel of one of the Welsh forms, more so because of the scattered internal rhymes.

This is where I've found most of the ones I use – and actually am in the middle of completing a poem using two of these forms right now. https://www.writersdigest.com/write-better-poetry/poetic-forms/welsh-poetic-forms
Thanks!
No problem!
