During the literature class,i learn that what is a cinquain.Cinquain is a five line poetry as the meaning of its first syllable is five in french.I knew that the first line should have a noun , the second line with 2 adjective,the third line with 3 gerund(verb),the fouth line having a short complete sensetence and lastly the last line with a synonym similar to the noun.I felt that it is easier than a normal poetry as it dosen't have to rhyme which would takes time.I had created one during the class: 
                        Teenager
                        light,active
                        running,playing,chatting
                        I am a girl
                        female
I think that although it is easier,but it is still not easy to create a nice cinquain as it require a good standard of english.I found a interesting poem on the web,its quite nice and i hope that you all like it:
                                                                                spaghetti
                                                                                messy,spicy 
                                                                                slurping,sliding,falling  
                                                                                between my plate and mouth
                                                                                delicious
                                                                               (Cindy Barden)
So,in all i felt that cinquain is very interesting and fun and it is easy to understand what the aurthor wants to express.Maybe we should also try writing a cinquain about our partner on class and we would understand more about it and lastly i would want to know how do we write a good cinquain.
