Wind Sounds – don’t waste a word….

One, two, three, four, five…
She said "don't waste a word."
Ten lines, seven yet unwritten;
How special is this lexis.
So unique, each of them.
Like babies come from me,
Birthed anew, all terms extraordinary,
Eight positions, hills yet to climb
None shall be thrown away
Every single sound from my heart.

edited because Wind is not a "he"...she is most definitely a girl!

Edited a second time because she's very picky!

Nicely written, Karilea.

Actually, Wind, I kinda thought you were a male, too, because you tore into that poor Balladeer so much. I really can't blame you for that, but I thought ALL THE WOMEN IN HERE WERE COMPLETELY FOOLED BY THAT SCALAWAG!

never using a word twice
must be one hard task

the form works. but beyond that it is a cool, if light, look at our creative processes. a poem about writing a poem in a specific form in the specific from - sort that out!
