Dear Karina,
You wrote: Now you all have been introduced to Cinquains , please introduce
me to a new form , or non form not too difficult , please.

Apologies if what I am going to write is of no help to you, but I do feel
that perhaps you are approaching poetry writing in the wrong way. Rather
than experimenting with forms unfamiliar to you- which frankly is more
likely to result in poetic exercises than poetry- why not just write about
something that interests or touches you. It doesn't need complicated forms-
you'll find that often a poem will find its own form. You can write in
simple couplets or quatrains- you can rhyme or not as you wish. But I think
it's important to have first an idea of something you want to communicate
through a poem, rather than simply writing 'a poem'.
Kind regards,
 grasshopper

Gary
