You’ve made me last

So that I would be first

You’ve given fresh water

To those who thirst

And hunger after righteousness

For they are truly filled

With your Holy Spirit

The One who reveals the Will

Of the Father

His purpose in the earth

Equipped to complete assignments

Given to them at birth

Pains from creatures’ travailing

Waiting for sons to manifest

Bringing deliverance, salvation

Hope, redemption and rest

From labor to reward

What we’ve all been waiting for

The prize of the high calling,

What we’ve all been working towards

Has meet us at the back

The very back of the line

For he was always waiting there

For he had First in mind

So apparently my toddler was born with something called a dermoid cyst.

I noticed it only when he was 2 (not 2 months, 2 years old!). I was looking at him and noticed a small lump by his inner eye.

I started researching up and right, asking on line. It was in the middle of the pandemic and we had a Zoom visit with his pediatrician who dismissed it as a clogged tear duct or a stye.

I wasn’t satisfied. I knew it was neither.

I researched and researched and researched for weeks till I found something that looked similar. It was called dermoid cyst.

I found a small Facebook group dedicated to this subject and I joined it.

I quickly learned that dermoid cysts usually are formed in the womb from extra skin and hair tissues and they mostly present as a pit in the middle of the nose.

I love experimenting with poetic forms especially when there is a liberty to play with words. Because I find it hard to go with the technicalities of the pattern.

And I have flubbed up Sedoko into tanka. So have I rectified it later. But to go with the structural aspect of poetry is very important.

Today’s Poetry form is Cinquain and I am delighted to share few of the very popular Cinquains which are chosen among the most.

A Cinquain is a nifty five-line poem inspired by Japanese Haiku. It was invented by Adelaide Crapsey. She was an American poet who took inspiration from Japanese Haiku. 

Here is my take on Cinquain poetry form. Hope you like it friends.

Thanks for the beautiful read friends. Your views and comments are much appreciated.

Much love and gratitude.
Stay…
