4.Students' answers may vary.
Step 3 Reading[來源:Zxxk.Com]
1.Circle the words that rhyme.What is unusual about the rhyming words in the last four lines?
2.Try beating or clapping the strong beats of the rhythm as you read the poem to yourself.Now listen to the poem again and clap the strong beats.
Suggested answers:
1.Circled words:you,new;need,feed;nineteen,mean;way,day;own,own.The rhyming words in the last four lines are unusual because they are the same word although they each have a different meaning.
2.The strong beats of the rhythm are marked below:
I've saved the summer
And I give it all to you
To hold on winter mornings
When the snow is new.
I've saved some sunlight
If you should ever need
A place away from darkness
Where your mind can feed.
And for myself I've kept your smile
When you were but nineteen
Till you're older you'll not know
What brave young smiles can mean.
I know no answers
To help you on your way
The answers lie somewhere
At the bottom of the day.
But if you've a need for love
I'll give you all I own
It might help you down the road
Till you've found your own.
Step 4 Discussion
In small groups discuss these questions:
1.Who is the speaker in the poem and who is he/she speaking to? Give reasons to support your answer.
2.Which of the following is the closest to the speaker's message? Give a reason for your choice.
A.If it's cold,I'll warm you;if it's dark,I'll give you light;if you're hungry,I'll feed you;if you want love,I'll give it to you.
B.Although the future may be difficult for you,whenever you need warmth and love,remember I'll have some to give you.
C.While you're away I'll remember your smile and I'll love you always.When you return,I hope you will love me.
Suggested answers:
1.A parent(mother or father)speaking to a young adult child(son or daughter).
We know that the speaker is probably a parent because he/she is offering the child unconditional love(But if you've a need for love,I'll give you all I own).We know that the son/daughter is a young adult because the speaker refers to the time when you were but nineteen.

How to Write a Cinquain
Cinquain,despite its French-sounding name,is an American poetry form that can be traced back to Adelaide Crapsey.Crapsey,influenced by Japanese haiku,developed this poetic system and used it to express brief thoughts and statements.Other poets who popularized the form were Carl Sandburg and Louis Utermeyer.While the form does not have the extensive popularity of haiku,it is often taught in public schools to children because of the form's brief nature.
Most cinquain poems consist of a single 22-syllable stanza,but they can be combined into longer works.A cinquain consists of five lines.The first line has two syllables,the second line has four syllables,the third line has six syllables and the fourth line has eight syllables,the final line has two syllables.
The line length is the only firm rule,but there are other guidelines that people have tried to impose from time to time.
Cinquain Guidelines
Write in iambs(Two syllable groupings in which the first syllable is unstressed and the second syllable stressed.For example:I DRANK she SMILED we TALKED I THOUGHT)For the last line of the cinquain,however,both syllables should be stressed,NICE BAR.
Write about a noun.Cinquains generally fail if you try to make them about emotions,philosophies or other complex subjects.They should be about something concrete.
Don't try to make each line complete or express a single thought.Each line should flow into the next or the poem will sound static.[來源:學(xué).科.網(wǎng)Z.X.X.K]
Cinquains work best if you avoid adjectives and adverbs.This doesn't mean you can't have any,but focus on the nouns and the verbs.This almost always works best in a cinquain.
The poem should build toward a climax.The last line should serve as some sort of conclusion to the earlier thoughts.Often,the conclusion has some sort of surprise built into it.
One possible,but not required,format is as follows:
Line 1:title noun
Line 2:description
Line 3:action
Line 4:feeling or effect
Line 5:synonym of the initial noun.
If you look at my examples,I prefer to use the noun as a separate title,not as part of the cinquain.Also,only one of the three poems is written in iambs.
Sample cinquains:[來源:學(xué).科.網(wǎng)]
Tucson Rain
The smell
Everyone moves
To the window to look
Work stops and people start talking
Rain came
Opening Game
Game time
Season looked good
National champions

Not now
New Bar

The street I went
To drink at the new bar
