The Flora and the Fauna (Pantoum) I marveled at the blending of the flora and the fauna, the fresh green scent of laurel wood and passion of Nirvana still lingering where I stood. The fresh green scent of laurel wood drifting from the bays still lingering where I stood brought a moment of deep haze. Drifting from the bays, the breath of hope that followed bought a moment of deep haze into my hollows that were hallowed. The breath of hope that followed after God Almighty called into my hollows that were hallowed took my heart, my soul, my all. After God Almighty called and passion of Nirvana took my heart, my soul, my all, I marveled at the blending of the flora and the fauna. God bless, Lighthouse Bob |

This is a very well thought out and written poem. You used the repeat lines very well and the entire poem flowed well. I very much enjoyed reading your poem. I strugglee with formal poetry writing so I am a bit envious |

dragngrl28, Oh, please, don't be. I suppose it's just about like anything else and just takes a bit of time and practice to learn. That's all and, so you know, your name or, something like your name, anyway, the name ‘dragon girl’ inspired me to research about dragons and inspired me to write a poem. I hope you like it. It's called 'Jabberboxy.' Thanks so much for your kind comment and God bless, -Bob |
