A POETS CRUSH-
ADELAODE CRAPSEY american cinquains form * first motivated my interest in poetry
For the lovely Adelaide Crapsey
a long life was not to be
But one day, freed me, to be me
her cinquained syllables ,I confess
awakened the poetic
..I guess
Innovative and never staid,
Unmarried,single but no old maid-
A short life,latterly full of pain,
Adelide's epitaph,the American cinquain.
In syllable,two,four,six &eight
she created the cinquain anew!
