So pleased

to see a new voice here, ifrom a human I adore. The rhyming couplet is generally not my fav, but I think you pulled it off with no forced rhymes, which is always tough. Thank you for sharing this, Noira, I think I understand.

I think it would have worked better if each line had had the same metrical length, I found myself stopping and starting as I tripped over the different metres. Good try though and hope to see you submit more

hello :)

not seen your poems before, noira, but thanks to espie consider us introduced :)

i didn't find any trouble with the 4,4/2,2/4,4/2,2/4,4 rhythm, and the rhyme scheme came easily enough, enhanced by your nifty use of assonance and consonance.

i'd take a good look at the punctuation you've employed in places - i was left feeling something was missing in some instances and, in others, the punctuation was unnecessary.

fave lines?

The wicked quirk of my dark grin
