Triolet
A French verse form. Its rhyme scheme is ABaAabAB and all lines are in iambic tetrameter; the first, fourth and seventh lines are identical, as are the second and final lines, thereby making the initial and final couplets identical as well. The features of the Triolet are: 8 lines. Two rhymes. 5 of the 8 lines are repeated or refrain lines. First line repeats at the 4th and 7th lines. Second line repeats at the 8th line.

Tears in the corners of my eye attract her spirit late at night. She shows in the lens, I supply, tears, in the corners of my eye. Grief conjures her ghost when I cry, calming anxieties and fright. Tears in the corners of my eye attract her spirit late at night. (Triolet) 10-29-2020

The unseen only briefly captured in a nanosecond, Emile. This captures that emotional longing so perfectly - seen through a watery tear like a watery vision. Best of luck in the contest!
