- Cinquino is seems to me is a
gimmicky invented verse form that reverses the syllable count of the
Crapsey Cinquain. It was found in a book on poetry for teachers and was
created by a 20th century American educator James Neille Northe.
The Cinquino is: - a poem in 5 lines.
- syllabic, 2-8-6-4-2 syllables per line.
- unrhymed
I Am
alone
time flies on flitting fairy wings
up down and all around
I am here now
alive

time flies
unless you're
waiting for the pot
to boil, you all
know that
it's relative
in fact
