Experimenting with Cinquain

What if
The world 🌎 was flat:
Would we fall off the edge?
Water 💦 would flow away and we
Would die!

 


Let me
Say I love ❤️ you
All the way to the moon 🌙
And back and beyond for ever and
A day

 

My dog 🐶
Is a daft brush
Chasing her tail around
Barking at her own daft shadow
Love ❤️ her!

 

Wind 💨 blows-
Howls in the trees 🌲
Whispers in the graveyard
Screams in the rafters - scaring me
To death 💀

 


Summer
Season of sun ☀️
Warming gardens into
Colourful bouquets 💐 for busy
Insects 🐜

 

Spring buds
Blossoming high
In the trees 🌲-birds fledging
Ready to fly, April showers catch
Us all

 

Winters ❄️
Chilled misty breathe
Frosting the window pane
Watching the world 🌎 put on winter ❄️
White coat

 

Berries
Ripening fat
Blackberries juicy black
Hedgerows laden- weighed with harvest
Treasure

 

Rainbow 🌈
Touching the ground-
Where the treasure is found
Golden coins in the leprechauns
Silk purse 👛
