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.
