The 7/5 Trochee is a stanza form invented by Andrea Dietrich. It consists of two or more quatrains written in catalectic trochaic meter, meaning that the unstressed syllable at the end of each line is omitted, resulting in syllable counts of 7, 5, 7, and 5 for each stanza. Various rhyme schemes are available, as described and demonstrated in the following link: http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/75trochee.html . Let the creativity flow from your soul!
