Andaree
Created by Andrea Dietrich with a rhyming scheme AaBbCbcbbaA. The first line and the last line are both the same 11- syllable line. This form decreases in line length with each line getting progressively smaller by 2 syllables until reaching the one-syllable word in the middle of the poem. Then each of the lines increase progressively by 2 syllables until the final line of eleven syllables is met: (11/9/7/5/3/1/3/5/7/9/11). The middle word should be a word very important to the theme. It appears somewhere in the title or can be the title itself and that middle word also rhymes with lines 3 4 8 and 9. Centering the poem is also required for an hourglass effect!
there is only one prerequisite for love
it fits snug as a hand in a glove
beyond seduction of lust
one truth is a must
there need be
trust
it's the key
when feelings combust
it assures that love is just
and helps you to fly free as a dove
there is only one prerequisite for love
