Hello everyone, first off I just want to thank you so for taking the time to read my thread. Anyway, I want to start writing poems about love, and I feel like once I figure out how I can contribute some good content to the forums. Although I never wrote many poems before so I am kind of a noob.

What's a good format?

I was looking at this

Sample Cinquain

Cinquain Basics
Cinquains have five lines that usually follow a specific structure:
First line: One word (noun) that will be the subject of the poem; two syllables
Second line: Two words (adjectives) that describe the subject; four syllables
Third line: Three words (-ing verbs) that have something to do with the subject; six syllables
Fourth line: Four words (a phrase) that relate to the subject; eight syllables
Fifth line: One word (noun) that is similar to the subject; two syllables

For the first line I want to take about a girl, but what should I say to show "her" in just 1 word.


Thank you!

Start with a girl's name and go form these perhaps
