Pentagonal towers of pollen
beckoning the busiest bee

    Hi Michael,

    How vivid and lovely, the euphony is more prominent than my own poem. You do dazzling job with all poetry forms. Much enjoyed :)
    Thank you for sharing.

    Hello Michael

    I read that poem of Samia's and loved it. This too is wonderful. The more time I spend reading formed poetry, the more I enjoy it, especially these shorter pieces that I really struggle with.
    To get the imagery and hook the reader with so little to work with is true art - you have it.
    The alliteration here is lovely, by the way.

    All the very best,
    Ben
