Click hereOne fears losing their voice in modern times
Then struggles to find how to speak again
Chase serpent coiled vines of elusive rhymes
Winding tightly all 'round cowled words of man
Search they to find gems lost in grains of sand
Hidden glinting treasure for those that sift
Rich fruit awaits within slowly teased strands
Perhaps this search will find age old sweet gifts
Sucess granted reward that falls soft from the lips

that's great
as one fears but has not lost there is a little conflict here
"Then struggles to find how to speak again"
" cowled " nice word
"Rich fruit awaits within slowly teased strands "love this as image of a woman's teased hair
HarryHillabout 11 years agoAuthorIf it had less words it would not fit the form of a Spincerian stanza. Thanks for the comments all. I should have stuck with my usual minimalist schtick.

twelveooneabout 11 years ago1st two lines - poetry
next two - eh. poetic, to tighten it, here you are introducing a snake-thing, and then it wiggles out. find a way so it slithers thoughout.
next personalize it, too generalized i.e. words of man, you are assuming the role of a spokesperson, not a good role in poetry.
