Mrs. Hudson's Poetry Page: The Hound of the Baskervilles, Chaps. 13-15

Welcome once again to my poetry page!

I hope each week you will read Dr. Watson’s delightful narrative and then go on to write a poem related to it in some way. All forms of poetry are permitted, and further down the page there is a selection you might like to consider using over the coming weeks.

And here, courtesy of my housemaid Rachel, is this week’s suggested poem to read—a suggestion inspired by the themes and subjects in this week's story. Hopefully you will enjoy the poem, and perhaps it may give you some ideas for a poem of your own or allow you to look at Dr. Watson's story in a new way.



He Made His Terror

by Dean P. Jeffress



Note from Rachel: This poem evokes Stapleton and his last attempt to murder Sir Henry on the dark, clouded, and moonlit road before he fled to his own death.



Thank you so much to Rachel. And here is my suggested form to revisit this week: kennings poem. (The link takes you back to a previous poetry page.)


But you do not have to use that form. Any form of poetry is welcome this week—and every week! Here are a few suggestions for you:

221B verselet, abecedarian poetry, acrostic poetry, alexandrine, ballad, beeswing, blackout poetry, blues stanza, bref double, Burns stanza, call and response, chastushka, cinquain, circular poetry, clerihew, colour poems, concrete poetry, Cornish verse, curtal sonnet, diamante, doggerel, double dactyl, ekphrasis, elegiac couplet, elegiac stanza, elfje, englyn, epigram, epitaph, epulaeryu, Etheree, fable, Fib, florette, found poetry, ghazal, haiku, In Memoriam stanza, Italian sonnet, jueju, kennings poem, lanturne, limerick, lyric poetry, mathnawī, micropoetry, mini-monoverse, musette, palindrome poetry, pantoum, Parallelismus Membrorum, poem cycle, quintilla, renga, riddle, rime couée, Schüttelreim, sedoka, septet, sestina, sonnet, tanka, tercet, terza rima, tongue twister poetry, triangular triplet, triolet, Tyburn, villanelle


Please leave all your poems inspired by The Hound of the Baskervilles in the comments on this post. I look forward to seeing them!


Warm regards,

Mrs. Hudson

Romping stops
Replaced by faces
Discovering traces
of Nature's call.

The mess removes
And Holmes reproves:

This is absolutely delightful, both as a poem and as a story. A Jack Russell is just right for Watson. Most unscary

Holmes gives Watson a dog is one of my favorite canon tropes. This is lovely.
