When starting one you begin with a nine syllable line. As you go from line to line you decrease the syllable count until you finish with a single syllable.

The Lune was created by poet Robert Kellyand styled after Japanese poetry. The Lune can be written one of two ways: The traditional way with a 5 syllable, 3 syllable, 5 syllable pattern, or with a 3 word, 5 word, 3 word pattern.

Sample of my own:

LOVE ALONE

You are love alone.
Hate perished
As you entered life.

Birds fill sky with song;
Sunshine smiles;
You are love alone.

The syllable count is 1,2,3,4,10 making a total of 20 syllables.

You can write more than one stanza with Tetractys
in doing so you have to reverse the syllables such as a two stanza Tetractys would look like the following:

1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 10, 4, 3, 2, 1

or a three stanza Tetractys:

1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 10, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 10
