Vines

"Green Vine Snake" by Michael and Patricia Fogden

Vines
verdant green
climbing, twisting, hanging
vipers of the forest

rambler.



I wanted to try something different for you all. So here is a cinquain that I've conjured up that revels in my love for the wonderful living things that surround us.

  2. I love cinquains.. I used to write a lot of them a while.. I like the way you connect it to a personal level in that last line.

    1. Cinquains are really fun to write, and perhaps one of the most basic traditional ways of writing poetry.

    1. Vines are definitely more lively than they may appear. Look at the ivy family for example.

  6. Good vines and bad vines, Kenn.
    The bad ones kill the trees.
    Or overtake the rest.

    1. This is really true in a lot of the warmer dense places. If only there was a way to prevent this from happening, but that would be against nature, which isn't easy to accomplish.
