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! ~s~t~r~e~s~s~e~d s y l l a b l e 2~4~6~8~2
