Lee's Cinquain

Walking

Slowly
In step
Two left feet
To lead me on
Before I trip and fall

I like the paradox in this between "in step" and "two left feet," one suggesting rhythm and the other awkwardness. It makes me think of a baby just learning to walk.

I also like the rhythm of the syllables, especially that they don't exactly increase with each subsequent line. It creates a sense of hesitation that is matched by the topic of the poem.
