Cinquain Poems

 

Cinquain Poems

Cinquain is pronounced as sin-cane. It is five lines long. The first line is 2 syllables, second line is 4 syllables, third line is 6 syllables, fourth line is 8 syllables and last line is 2 syllables long. While you make the second, third and 4th line it would be shape like a diamond kind of like a diamante but for me too explain what a diamante is for a different time. While you make your cinquain you can make the words rhyme if you want, but you don’t have too. This is what a cinquain poem would look like. But not shape like a diamond because I couldn’t .

Cinquains

Recently in class we have been working on Cinquains. You might be wondering what are Cinquains well Cinquains are poems with 5 lines. In the first line of the poem there are 2 syllables, in the second line there are 4 syllables, in the third line there are 6 syllables, in the fourth line there are 8 syllables and in the last line there are 2 syllables so its just 24682. Most often Cinquains tell a story, you can make a Cinquain, anyone can make one, the best way to make a Cinquain is to start with a topic, maybe the topic can be about something you love or spring/summer etc and then you can move on from there. I made this post because I made a few Cinquains I want to share, I will be showing 3 of mine, here they are!
