  4. As she dances on the moonlit glen Taking in the freshness of the air She is alone, but not lonely She is surrounded by spirits Taking in the freshness of the air Searching again for her silent companions She is surrounded by spirits They watch the contentment she holds Searching again for her silent companions She is alone, but not lonely They watch the contentment she holds As she dances on the moonlit glen Example of a Pantoum Red: The second and fourth lines 0f the first stanza will become first and third in the second stanza.
