For Rules, Please Read My Author Notes

tip tap goes the rain 

outside my tree house  

drip drip from the trees 

and soaked falling leaves 

knock knock  pit-ta-pat

 

Author Notes
-Ekphrastic: poem inspired by a picture
-I used some Onomatopoeia (the formation of a word, such as cuckoo, meow, honk, or boom, by imitation of a sound made by or associated with its referent.

Cinquain Tanka is a combination of a cinquain poem and a tanka. It's written using 5 lines with 5 syllables on each line. "Cinq" is French for the number 5. Tanka is a Japanese poem with five lines too. I created this new poem form. It never rhymes. You can use any subject.

Line one: 5 syllables
Line two: 5 syllables
Line tree: 5 syllables
Line four: 5 syllables
Line five: 5 syllables

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
