A Cinquain

A chapter in the book Little Poems

Robin a Bobbin'

by Treischel


Robin
Orange Chested
Flittering on the ground
Forever searchin', head bobbin'
Worms found





I'm sure you see them in the yard bobbing their heads into the grass in search of worms. It's a pretty common sight.

This poem is a Cinquain.
A Cinquain is a five line poem. The format, inspired by Adelaide Crapsey in 1915, has a fixed syllable count of: 2,4,6,8,2. Rhyming is optional.

I did a bit of rhyme on this one.
I counted the word -orange- correctly this time as 2 syllables.
