(A 7/5 Trochee)
*********

*

You are all the World to me,
I am but your moon,
Held by your great gravity,
Or I would soon swoon ...

*

Falling from the orbit where
I have been so long,
I would crash and smash and there
I would sing this song!

(The 7/5 Trochee, created by Andrea Dietrich,

of 2 or more quatrain stanzas with the following set rules:

Meter 7/5/7/5. Rhyme Scheme: a/b/c/b  or  a/b/a/b.

The meter is trochee, which means alternating stressed and unstressed beats in each line, with each line beginning and ending in a stressed syllable. 

This is a little and simple lyrical type poem, so rhymes will be basic, nothing fancy.

The poem itself should give a description of something of interest to the poet.

There is not a set number of these quatrain type  stanzas, but a typical 7/5 Trochee would consist of two quatrains, with the second stanza serving to tie up the idea presented in the first stanza.)
