Falling (Cinquain)

cold winds
shivering trees
rustling frightened foliage
dying leaves struggling to hang on....

    Good cinquain for your first try. I hope you enjoyed the form, you did very well with it. I like the thoughts you had about the season and the struggle of the leaves, thank you so much.

      Hi azure

      Thank you for the HM. One question - does it have to be 5 fragments or can it be one or two phrases written in 5 lines?

        A cinquain can be phrases or fragments, there is no set rule except for the syllable count.
