A collection of cinquain poems that cover a broad variety of subjects. From serious to funny, from comforting to challenging, these strictly regimented poems offer rather large ideas in very small packages. In the author's words, "I had written poetry for many years before I discovered cinquain. Once I had disciplined myself to write the first cinquain, I immediately wanted to write another ... and another ... and another. From that point, I was fascinated by the form -- the only generally accepted 'American' poetic form. I find myself writing cinquain about any and all subjects and never apologizing for it. In general, I have always favored poems with disciplined meter and rhyme, but cinqain has won a special place in my heart for life."
