National Poetry Month: 15/30: The Nothing-To-Do-Day Drawer (Part III)

Keeping that cinquain formatting for today. Still exploring contents of the drawer. What might be fun in revision is to try a “garland cinquain” form wherein six cinquains are linked together with the sixth being made up of lines from the other five. Line one from cinquain one, line two from cinquain two. . .

 

Crayons,

a brand new box.

I open up the flap.

Every color is standing tall

pointing.

 

Comics,

just a couple.

I read them quietly

and dream of life in Riverdale,

teen-aged.

 

Candy

in a paper sack

from a quick trip downtown.

Choosing one kind was difficult.

So sweet.
