This form is a 7/5 Trochee which was created by Andrea Dietrich in her pre Poetry Soup days. A 7/5 Trochee contains 2 or more quatrain stanzas with a syllable count of 7/5/7/5 and a rhyme scheme of a/b/c/b or a/b/a/b. The meter is trochee, which means alternating stressed and unstressed beats in each line, with each line beginning and ending with a stressed syllable. In this poem I included internal rhymes in the first and third line of each stanza.
