Notes About The Poem

Other Form – Trionet: created by L Milton Hankins, a two-stanza poem. The first stanza follows the rules for a standard triolet of eight (8) lines ABaAabAB (capital letters are repeated lines). The second stanza consists of six (6) lines, formed with five (5) lines repeated from the first stanza and adding an appropriate non-repeated rhyming last line with a rhyme scheme of AAABBb.

Every Minute Each Day

Every minute, every hour of each day, my heart entreats you with longing. I desire your heart trusts what I say every minute, every hour of each day. If God exists, I avidly pray He accords my desire for belonging. Every minute, every hour of each day my heart entreats you with longing. Every minute, every hour of each day, I desire your heart trusts what I say. If God exists, I avidly pray He accords my desire for belonging. My heart entreats you with longing accompanied by true love’s prolonging.
