POEM STARTER

Write a cinquain, which focuses on the theme of connections.

A cinquain is a poem of 5 lines with a set structure. Use the typical American cinquain syllable structure across your five lines: 2-4-6-8-2

Three Barren Cinquains

Cinquains

Precious saviours

When I can’t write anymore

When my mind is empty and dry

Why why?

I love writing

Why don’t ideas flow?

I just stare at the screen, barren

Broken

No ideas at all

Just this nonsense here

Enough now, time for me to go

No no
