@Valkyrie should challenge people to write a quatrain for an upcoming prompt.

I'm going to point this out first... don't go all Nostradamus on us... https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Nostradamus_(1961)

This word brings back memories of high school English class.

There's nothing to writing a quatrain,

Nostradamus wrote them by the score.

As poems go, they are quite plain,

Getting them to rhyme can be a chore.
