Cinquain pair 2/4/6/8/2
A chapter in the book One Thousand Cranes
Playing in the Rain
by Gypsy Blue Rose
For Cinquain Rules, Please Read My Author Notes
~ Playing in the Rain ~ tip tap goes the cool rain spraying my window pane drip drip drizzle from wet oak trees sodden earthy and soggy leaves splosh splash puddle pools for jumping over crusty frost glaze on the zig-zag pathway to school raining

- The Wake = The wake of any ship or boat consists of the waves created by the hull of the vessel as it moves through the water.
- Washout = Informal. an utter failure.
CINQUAIN is inspired by Japanese haiku and tanka, is akin in spirit to that of the *Imagists. The form is five lines with 22 syllables count in a pattern of 2/4/6/8/2. The title is used as the sixth line. It's usually unrhymed but it can be rhymed and about any subject. It was created by American poet, Adelaide Crapsey in 1915. Her cinquain depends on the strict structure and intense imagery to communicate a mood or feeling.
*Imagism was a movement in early-20th-century American poetry that favored precision of imagery and clear, sharp language, very much as haiku and tanka. more information
