Monday Cinquain

A Cinquain ("SING-cane") poem (from French meaning "a grouping of five") is a five-line poem with two, four, six, eight, and two syllables, respectfully.   Depending on what source you believe, there are specific rules -- with many variations that don't have to follow any rules (?).  You mean that . . .



There are
Many, many
Did I mention "many"?
Different forms of the Cinquain
Poems


I learned about the form this morning as I was having my morning coffee and surveying our back yard.

So, here goes my attempt:

Coffee
A gentle rain
Fairy Diddles dancing
Wild Violets advancing
Refill




Carpe diem Life,
