It is a very interesting form. I like your example of it; it is very expressive. I enjoyed this poem, and the picture goes quite well.

You described doubt so well. I liked the use of the multiple "D" words. It seemed to add to the poem. I also liked the word "negating". Doubt does seem to have a way of taking away from that which could be good. Enjoyed your look at doubt. WRite on!

Really great job! What a wonderful description of doubt, each word clearly telling a description or detailing the effects of doubt.

Very nicely done. Very interesting picture associated with the poem as well. Thanks for sharing!

thievery of clear thought - what a great image to define doubt
that is my absolute favorite line
I love the repetition of the D in doubt, disruptive, deceiving - that links the lines so well and is even picked up in indecision so that all five lines are linked
this is quite good!!

It's amazing how much content you packed into eleven words.

My favorite phrase was "Thievery of clear thought".

And I very much enjoyed your use of alliteration with the "d's" and "t's".

    Joan E. - and that's why I just love doing these strict formats. Great practice to keep on one's toes for word usage! Thank you so much for your most kind review and lovely comments. With regards, Sue

Hi Sixteezkid,

As far as I can tell, you've met all the requirements for a modified Cinquain. You did well in matching a picture to your words. The words you chose work well together in conveying the message. Good job.

Great job on this one, and let me tell you... I am always respectful of those who put instructions in the author notes to form poetry. It shows they not only know what they are doing but have respect for those who might not understand the form they posted and are willing to teach. I commend you on the effort you have shown to help those.
Have a wonderful day! Suzi

    Susan, I agree that the poetry form should accompany author's notes. It is because of all the great people here who have done that, that I learned to understand the format and take up the challenge myself. So, I most certainly want to keep the sharing going. Thank you for your most kind review and very nice words. With regards, Sue
