Today, on the trail along the shoreline, I walked by a guy who had stopped his bicycle at a park bench. He was in an animated conversation… with himself.
Linked cinquains:
I walk / by a man who / is in an argument / with himself; I avoid looking / at him –
knowing / that I will lose / arguments with someone / with such command over two points / of view.
Cinquains are short, five line poems with a 2-4-6-8-2 syllable structure.
Enjoy the trail.
Thanks for the laugh, Andy! I needed that…

You’re welcome.
True story. I walked on and stopped at another park bench… and wrote that!

Thanks Jim.
I enjoyed your poem.
All the best, Andy
