Have you read this essay yet, mes amis?</A>

Let's remember that the cinquain is imagistic. So far, I'd say Anne is most in tune with the image aspect of the cinquain. How about some senses: sight, sound, taste, touch, smell. Am I on the right track, Janice?

Niagara, Seen on a Night in November

How frail
Above the bulk
Of crashing water hangs
Autumnal, evanescent, wan,
The moon.

- Adelaide Crapsey
