A villanelle is a poetic form that is characterized by a rhyme scheme that follows an ABABCDCDEFEFGG pattern. This rhyme scheme repeats end rhymes, creating a song-like quality.

It also has 19 lines, including five tercets and a quatrain.

It does not necessarily include a shift or change in tone, and it does not have to be written in iambic pentameter.
