I Saw My Father Die April Poem

I Saw My Father Die April Poem

my father died.
when I saw my dad lying there.
I sensed his soul departing from his dead body.
it was as if a light had gone out, his soul escaped from his life.
I knew death then.


Prompt:
We are going to start Poetry Week with the Double Cinquain.

Information can be found here: "Cinquain, Double"


One stanza - just five lines.

Topic is yours to choose.

On an Internet search for new poetry forms, I found the Double Cinquain. The structure is quite the same, compared with the Cinquain, only the syllables have doubled.

How did the Cinquain go?


xx
xxxx
xxxxxx
xxxxxxxx
xx

The Double Cinquain have twice as much syllables, but still five lines.
So in a scheme it looks:


xxxx
xxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxx
