Trinquint

Triquint
Triquint, a poem form created by Sylvia A. Feeley, which consists of 3 verses, 5 lines each. Lines 3 and 4 of verse 1 (Refrain) repeat in verses 2 and 3. The syllable count for each stanza is 9, 7, 5, 3, 1 and has an aaAAb rhyme scheme.
Example:
Heartache
Words written in verses, they appeal.
Sung about in songs you feel.
Heartache, all to real.
Ne'er ideal.
Hears.
Emotions which are hard to conceal.
Feelings that are so surreal.
Heartache, all to real.
Ne'er ideal.
Tears.
Beliefs that if you were to reveal,
would cause pain too hard to heal.
Heartache, all to real.
Ne'er ideal.
Fears.

Union     (Triquint)

How'd you happen to start loving me?
I speculate that maybe
reciprocity
sets us free.
How?

Each one supporting the other's chi,
manifests duality;
reciprocity
sets us free.
now.

When two souls merge, their reality
makes strong singularity,
reciprocity
sets us free.
Wow!
