In the pale midsummer night
Young lovers the forest adorn
Fiery passion shining bright
A love-star is bornYoung lovers the forest adorn
Bathed in magic full moon light, guarded by the fierce unicorn
Champion that for true love fightsFiery passion shining bright
Reflected in the spiral horn, shining beacon to every soul’s sight
As heart’s hope is rebornA love-star is born

Manifestation of the Goddess might, true heart and soul love is sworn
In the pale midsummer night
Written for Poetry Form: Trimeric at dVerse. Trimetric is a new form for me but one I found satisfying the same way I do Pantoums or Triolets, so I’m sure I’ll write more.
Also shared to the Writers’ Pantry.
Today’s poetry form is Trimeric (Trimeric \tri-(meh)-rik\), which was invented by Charles A. Stone.
The rules are pretty simple:
1. Trimeric has 4 stanzas
2. The first stanza has 4 lines
3. The other three stanzas have 3 lines each
4. The first line of each stanza is a refrain of the corresponding line in the first stanza (so 2nd stanza starts with the second line, third stanza starts with the third line, etc.).
5. The sequence of lines, then, is abcd, b – -, c – -, d – -.
No other rules on line length, meter, or rhyme.
