The triolet is a centuries old French form. The poem is only 8 lines long and written in iambic tetrameter with a rhyme scheme of ABaAabAB. The capital letters show the lines that repeat - the first line is also the fourth and seventh lines and the second line is also the final line.
I realize the fire/higher lines have 9 syllables each, so there is no need to point that out. It is intentional. :-)
