I love her,
O she makes my heart stir,
galloping across the open sky.
O my Kentucky mistress, forces me to fly.
Taking my reins, she guides me to a place on high,
saddled in a secret place so free.
She takes me forcefully,
Cinnarry.
Author notes
Trois-par Huit
The structure of the Trois-par Huit is easy to compose as it only has three stanzas of 3,3,2 or 3,2,3, lines which can be decided on your own personal taste.
As with many forms the Trois-par-Huit has a syllable count, 3,6,9,12,12,9,6,3 and a rhyming scheme of AAB BBC CC or if you were to choose the 3,2,3, line stanza it would be AAB BB CCC.
The last line of the poem should be the title of the piece and should summarize what the poem is about.
