Soccer,
beautiful game,
played without hands
thrill with no bounds,
Soccer.
I decided to write a Cinquain as my last poem. It seemed like the best way to finish this project, a simple poem about the beautiful game.
A cinquian poem has five lines, the first line has one word which is the title. The second line has two words which describe the title. The third line has three words which tell the action. The fourth line has four words which express the feeling. And the fifth line restates or recalls the title. While there are other types of Cinquains which are more rigid, defining what types of words to use, and/or how many sullables there should be, I decided to go for a simple and free cinquain.
Niccollo,
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this form of poetry. The simpleness and directness of the message is refreshing. My favorite line in your poem was "thrill without bounds", because I also believe that there are no limits you can have either playing or watching soccer. The repition also opened and closed the poem very nicely. Nice work!
I liked how well you incorporated your passion for soccer into this poem. It was a great choice to use a cinquain poem because of the simplicity. You managed to put a lot of feeling into your words.

I really liked this poem. A simple and direct poem was really refreshing after reading many complicated poems. The repetition of soccer at the beginning and the end of the poem creates a definite beginning and end and gives the poem a clear subject and purpose. Great Poem
ReplyDeleteI agree with the above comments, it didn't beat around the bush at all and somehow, through its honesty in stating the obvious, proved originality. Good choice on the cinquain, a very successful attempt!
