Skeleton
A Poem that encourages you to reflect on yourself
These are not the typical questions that one should ask oneself.:
1) Who are you when your skeleton is exposed?
2) How do your bare bones appear?
3) Are you true to yourself?
4) What is the state of your relationships with others?
5) Does your skeleton charm, or does it scare and harm?
Enjoy Bare Bones, a string of Cinquain.
Bare bones
Their form exposed
Clink together in a
Dance, traipsing to Songs
of you
Bare bones
Their form exposed
Their clickity -clack sounds
Truthful tone
Ringing
Bare bones
Their form exposed
Joining together in
Odd synchrony to play the songs
of truth
Bare bones
Their form exposed
Form a skeleton that
Cannot walk unless all the bones
join together
Bare bones
Their form exposed
They come together in a dance
Either a sight that charms the eyes
Or scares.

Those were some deep questions that I've definitely never asked myself except number 3 and 4. Loved your Crown Cinquain!
This was so deep and powerful! Fantastic poem!
