Cinquain

Okay now back to structured poems. Another short and quick poem you can create is a cinquain. 

This is a short five stance poem. It consists of one word in the first line and then 2, 3,4 and for the last line only one word. Sometimes it makes more sense to just read an example than to understand it. 

My example:

Children
Messy, tricksters
Playing, loving, sleeping
Learning as they grow.
Adults.
