Triolet
A Triolet is a poetic form consisting of only 8 lines.
Within a Triolet, the 1st, 4th, and 7th lines repeat,
and the 2nd and 8th lines do as well.
The rhyme scheme is simple: ABaAabAB, capital letters
representing the repeated lines.
Make writing a Triolet more challenging!
Make each line 8 syllables in length (4 metrical feet),
written in iambic tetrameter (the more common way),
or try it in pentameter (English version) where each line
only has 10 syllables(5 metrical feet).
