heron siege flights home
in the dying light —
heron left behind
in decaying marsh
knee-deep in sorrow

Cinquain Tanka is a combination of a cinquain poem and a tanka. It's written using 5 lines with 5 syllables on each line. "Cinq" is French for the number 5. Tanka is a Japanese poem with five lines too. I created this new poem form. It never rhymes. You can use any subject.
Line one: 5 syllables

Line tree: 5 syllables

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
