Midnight's Dreams - Quinzaine Poem

Midnight holds dreams of lovers
What are their true dreams?
Wrapped in love?

Quinzaine ▼

: The English word quinzaine come from the French word qunize, meaning fifteen. A quinzaine is
an unrhymed verse of fifteen syllables.

These syllables are distributed among three lines so that there are seven syllables in the first line,
five in the second line and three in the third line (7/5/3). The first line makes a statement. The next
two lines ask a question relating to that statement.
