For the love of a musician,
Playing a sinuous lay,
On a star-shined night,
Whispering twilight,
In the cher, nebulous May,
For the heart of a musician,
I drank his passion and charm,
Steadily and then,
Heavily again,
Tune changes, sudden alarm,
For the smile of a musician,
Who's depressive gaze saddens,
My very heart and soul,
As they are swallowed whole*,
A moon that slowly blackens,
For the throe of a musician.
In the previous example, I used three stanzas to make it clearer, underlining the lines that have seven syllables and rhyme, and putting the ones with five syllables in italics.
*The extra syllable is not there by mistake.
