The Ninth poem (the prompt was "measured") is due today. I submitted a double Cinquain. The American cinquain is an unrhymed, five-line poetic form defined by the number of syllables in each line—the first line has two syllables, the second has four, the third six, the fourth eight, and the fifth two (2-4-6-8-2). They are typically written using iambs.
Measuring Time: a double Cinquain
One life
Don’t waste time with
Was yesterday the best?
Will tomorrow fulfill my dreams?
Tick Tock.
Today!
‘Time’ doesn’t pass.
We ourselves pass through time.
Be fully present for each “tick.”
Spend time!
