The cinquain

Learned of a new form of poetry the other day. It's called a "cinquain." My creation follows.

Hug
Cozy, Desperate
Healing, Lasting, Loving
A place of security
Comfort

I'm not sure that I like cinquains. They're much too structured or something.
1 Noun
2 Adjectives
3 "-ing" words
4-word sentence
1 Synonym of noun

Free verse is best, says the mushiness under my thinking cap.
