Through what could be seen from underneath
Silence held motionless within that gained look
Treasured memoirs created beneath
For standing veils drift in astute grace
Just as winds howl serenity—souls took
Grasping hold from whence time granted willed belief
Elegance taken aback notions
Whilst bringer of life makes tokens
Flying evermore to places written here
And once more to simple lover’s hue
Towards the night of tranquility’s mere
Supple wisdom; eloquence flowed clear
Enthralled rapture deemed ambled potions
For standing veils drift in astute grace
Momentarily this spirit soars from there
Through what could be seen from underneath
Author notes
This is a new form I just created so here's the explaination:
Syllabic count is enneasyllabic or nine syllables per line with incorporating syllabic count of hendecasyllabic or eleven. Traditional poem requires end rhyming with matching end consonant and/or vowel but line four of the stanza DOES NOT need a matching end consonant and/or vowel and line six of simply rhymes With alternating stanzas of six, seven, and three (stanza length is three for traditional whereas modern stanza length is up to you)
Format:
A->9
B->11
C>9
C>9
B>11
A>11
D>9
E>9
F>11
F>9
D>11
E>11
E>9
3rd stanza:
Line 1(repeats line C2)
Line 2(refrains syllabic count of D2)
Line 3 (repeats line A1)
will return to finish

I understand how the syllable count goes, but do not understand the rhyming scheme. Is it the letters (next to the numbers) or is it different...? :S

Answer
The numbers next to the letters indicate the syllabic count and the letters themselves represent the rhyme scheme. Understand now?
