the single lanterne is a  half American cinquain    (labelled Lanterne due to shape here at PS guide link) is when not so presented  perhaps closer to English hiku 

COLLECTION
VIDUAGE Tall nettles- the dutch hoe rusting in the shed. Lanterne #5 a sea mist rolls inshore- daydreams deluge me Lanterne#18 Blind alleys so often have the deepest ruts. Lanterne 3 By a stream so shallow- stoops a willow tree. Lanterne 177 May blossom- confetti dancing on the breeze ART SCHOOL The secret of seeing- knowing how to see RISING STAR A life in the fast lane- five minutes of fame. as a LANTERNE ALMANAC WINTER in anger- whips up the waves, pounds the shingle shore SPRING in action- brings to life and feathers its nest SUMMER so lazy- rests the soul and flowers the land AUTUMN so mellow- scents and sounds in the harvest home. DRIFTING our feelings subside as we go with the flow
