Adelaide the Number One Imagist
repost inspired by Constance contest
A well travelled lass named Adelaide
Innovative and never staid,
Unmarried,single but no old maid-
A short life,latterly full of pain,
Her epitaph,the American cinquain.
Tribute vignette to Adelaide Crapsey,the creator of the American Cinquain form
and clerihew tribute
An American imagist Adelaide Crapsey
one day, freed me, to be me
her cinquained syllables ,I confess
awakened the poetic, I guess
