Crossroads
This week at IGWRT, we are presenting micro poetries on the topic "the cross-roads" in 10 lines or less. So, here is a small poetry form called cinquain from me..
Basically cinquain is a 5-line stanza which follows the following pattern:
1. Title
2. Two words to describe title
3. Three words to express action
4. Four words to express a feeling
5. One word that restates the title
Amidst all the emotions that one feel when it comes to decision making and choosing a path further, the bitter truth is that there is no one correct path! All ways however lead to a better future or prepare one for a better future :)

ReplyDeleteThis is new even to me, have two others tried on my blog. don't know if its done well but thanks for the appreciation :)
DeleteKnew another variant of the cinquain (syllble count)... loved the message in this...
ReplyDeleteI have read about both, this being simpler, I thought will try this first and if works well, the syllable one can be considered
DeleteYou have summed up the essence of crossroads very neatly in your form.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot, Kerry :)

ReplyDeleteI think this is true. Love it
ReplyDeleteSometimes we learn the best of life from taking the most unexpected choice at the crossroad.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, what is to come ahead is anyways unexpected... :)
