I'm uber bored, so I tried a new type of poem. It's called a Cinquain [pronounced 'sin'- 'cane']. Here's what I wrote, this took about 7mins:
Snowflake
Almost looking fake,
On their way down grey skies.
The smiles they bring do surprise.
Snowflake
I can write ONE for someone, if anyone's interested. Comments would be nice, constructive critism would be great.

I really like your cinquain Sterling but to make it even better you should try to extend the vocabulary in it. Thenit would be even better!!! |

cinquains are not supposed to be long. They are meant to have that exact # of lines. Sorry, not trying to sound like a know-it-all or anything bad if that's how it seems. Just tryin to give some info to a friend.
It was an ok poem...could be a lot better if u didn't just jot something down really quick...like some others said, better vocab use would make it a lot better sounding. One other thing...the last line should be a synonym for the 1st line, not the exact same word. Again, not trying to sound like a know-it-all, just trying to help. |
