InForm Wednesday...Trimeric Form

Poetic Bloomings invites us to attempt the trimeric form.

Trimeric is a four stanza poem created by Dr. Charles A. Stone.  The first stanza has four lines,  and the remaining three  have three lines each.   The  first line of stanzas two through four repeat the respective line of the first stanza.
The sequence of lines, then, is abcd, b – -, c – -, d – -.

Sometimes its not enough
to know you are out there somewhere
When all I want is to love you
with your whispers in my hair

To know you are out there somewhere
keens the moan of the wind
as it wanders in search of you


When all I want is to love you
I embrace the beautiful hunger
Folding it into a  prayer


With your whispers in my hair
I  hear you reply
That knowing is enough
