Let us create a poem using words in a kite! The first line is the subject. Keep this to one word. Use a noun. The second line is two describing words for the noun. Line three includes three action words. Line four uses two words that describe the action words. Line five is one word that has the same meaning as the subject/synonym. This is called a cinquain poem. Now, create a cinquain poem yourself on anything you like.

The cinquain follows the pattern: one noun (subject), two adjectives describing it, three verbs showing action, two adverbs describing the actions, and one synonym for the subject.
