“The river can’t heal everything” ~ Jim Harrison
Cinquain - a five-line poetic form from Adelaide
Crapsey comprising 2 syllables in the first line, 4
in the second, 6 in the third,8 in the fourth,
and 2 in the fifth.
Young hearts
Flutter in the
wet but so forgiving
Never a dull moment learning
the ropes
Better
believe in it
Water a survival
factor, yes, but not to expect
wonders
Jilly's Day 27 – Cinquain for My Love
Have to work at it to survive it indeed
ReplyDeletePerfectly reflects the quote - not to expect wonders. Great job, Hank!
ReplyDeleteI liked this Hank, A good read.
ReplyDeleteYvonne.
Thanks for introducing me to this form.
ReplyDeleteWater does nourish the flowers;
Water is needed for survival, it is an important element.
ReplyDeleteLuv the second one more than the first, luv the caution towards expectations
ReplyDeletemuch love...
