Night Light ( Cinquain )

A crow
black's darkest hue,
jet wings aflame with night,
obsidian and ebony,
lit, here.

The first line has one stress, which was usually iambic meter with the first syllable unstressed and the second stressed.
Line two has two stresses.
Line three has three stresses.
Line four has four stresses.
Line five has one stress.

Following the invention of this form, Crapsey made changes to the form and included a certain number of syllables per line.

Line one had two syllables.
Line two had four syllables.
Line three had six syllables.
Line four had eight syllables.
Line five had two syllables.

There are other forms of cinquain but I liked this one.

Procrastination

To do
Or not to do?
Tomorrow is next day
I promise I will do it then
That's when!

Hand Out

Ups and downs of loving
we all do surely know
but friendships shared
have, too, a gentle
ebb and flow

When you are down,
above with spirits high
someone may well be seen
but also beneath can be found
a friend with their deep sigh

Spirits rise, spirits fall
as day to day we go
Just look around
we are always here
of this our lives do show

Shoulder-to-shoulder
footsteps help track time
sharing laughs and tears
some walk with us, both
under clouds and in sunshine.

In any direction is
a friend to reach, no doubt
Remember, then, when spirits flag
to give, grab life and hope
Just stretch your hand out.
