is the name of
a dodo and no chance
of finding one to sing the song
of love.

In hand
We walk together
Till the road ends
And all we have is us
Forever together.
I have no Idea if I did that right but here it is!
It's lovely but not the correct form. You begin with the last two syllables of the person above you, so it should have been 'of' hand and then you follow the pattern of syllables for a cinquain...Originally Posted by Kayrose

Good luck and try again, often.
I'm in love with The Vinegar Man and Mr. Tanner, but be careful, it could just as easily be you.

I watch you reach
do not prick your finger
unless prepared to sleep it off
wake up

this early dew
day rising like magma
from the oceans edge makes me burn
for life
for life
and plenitude
to show, window blinds must
spread slivers of our inside selves
to day
and somehow a dog
has taken itself & its tail considerably away
into the mountains or sea or sky, leaving
behind: me, wag.

a toast to you
I hold my glass up high
my face a rainbow reflecting
crystals

iridesce keenly before my
