Within the Swap Quatrain each stanza in the poem must be a quatrain (four lines) where the first line is reversed in the fourth line. In addition, line 2 must rhyme with line 1, and line 3 must rhyme with line 4 and so on, BUT not repeat the same rhyming pattern on subsequent stanzas. Not mentioned in the notes I found is these are usually written with specific syllable count per stanza, I therefore am taking poetic liberty to just let my syllable count flow as it came from my heart.
Rhyming pattern: AABB, CCDD, and so on.
