#cinquain poems on Hello Poetry

Thomas W Case 3d

Alive
Too young to care
Busy with living loud
Born on the wind, my youth flew by
Quickly.

Foresight
No conclusions
Could be wrong, maybe right
Try seeing through the night without
Moonlight

~ Cinquain ~
The first line and the last line mirror one another in sound, and the number of syllables increases by two with each line before abruptly decreasing: 2-4-6-8-2.
~
The word Cinquain is the French word for "bundle of five objects."

These Streets

These streets
are not just roads;
they hold our stories, and
embedded within them are our
poems

Good Men

Good men
won't be found here.
Chivalry is long dead.
Here, we sit in shadows and hide
our scars.

ACAB

Handcuffed
for buying a
flower from a roadside
vendor. America summed up
right there.

Untitled

Walking
by me as I
wrestle with my regret,
she laughs - and for a short moment I
too smile

Safe Space

The way
you talk about
it, you seem to think that
time really does stand still in my
embrace

Whiskey in my Gullet

The taste
of my cigar
and the whiskey in my
gullet can't fill the pit inside
my chest

Sunday Evenings

Whiskey
dark chocolate,
smooth jazz, and some gritty
poetry are all that I need
tonight

Summer Whimsy

staring
at Departures,
waiting with futile hope
that my flight's not cancelled; let me
get home
