Lunegay; a poetic form analogous to a rengay. A rengay consists of a series of haiku-like stanzas interspersed with stanzas consisting of two lines that have a maximum of seven syllables each. A lune differs from a haiku in having lines of 5, 3, and 5 syllables, with the goal of making the stanzas resemble a crescent moon. They typically make reference to moons. A lunegay begins with a lune, and these alternate with stanzas of two lines as for a rengay. The length of the poem is indeterminate, but the middle is marked by two lunes in succession, as for a rengay. The lunegay was invented by me in 2019, though I haven't written many yet. A new one has been submitted to a magazine..
