The wind It was blowing She closed her eyes and felt How nice it is to feel something Unseen ~~~~~ Unseen Therefore unheard But the sea had many Secrets and mysteries untold Curious ~~~~~ Curious She squinted hard It seemed to her the waves Were beckoning her to follow Should she? ~~~~~ Should she Follow her heart And jump into the sea Or listen to the warning bells Ringing ~~~~~ Ringing In both her ears Swimming underwater Kept going deeper till she found Answers

A Crown Cinquain is a sequence of five cinquain stanzas functioning to construct a larger poem. The syllabic count for each stanza is 2-4-6-8-2. The last line of the previous cinquain stanza is repeated as the first line of the next cinquain stanza. The final line of the last cinquain stanza does not have to equal the first line of the first cinquain stanza, but it is an option.
