Cinquain Poems

poetryCinquain

Cinquain is a short, usually unrhymed poem consisting of twenty-two syllables distributed as 2, 4, 6, 8, 2, in five lines. It was developed by the Imagist poet, Adelaide Crapsey. Another form, sometimes used by school teachers to teach grammar, is as follows:

Line 1: Noun
LineĀ 2: Description of Noun
Line 3: Action
Line 4: Feeling or Effect
LineĀ 5: Synonym of the initial noun

Ā I will be doing both, so there will be two poems in this post.

You better get it fast
