I Hear a Whisper in the Breeze

by adewpearl


I hear a whisper in the breeze
that speaks to me with tender voice
midst lilting larks and buzzing bees
I hear a whisper in the breeze
which lifts me from my bended knees
that I might in all life rejoice
I hear a whisper in the breeze
that speaks to me with tender voice

The triolet is a French repeating form that dates back to minstrels in the Middle Ages. It is a one verse poem of 8 lines written in iambic meter with a rhyme scheme of ABaAabAB. The capital letters show which lines are repeated, so that line 1 is also lines 4 and 7, and line 2 is also line 8. I have chosen to write this triolet without punctuation to add to the flow.
