Sand stake of smog steam sieve you stride in silence steps by slamming a skulker-shaped slope spread string.

Woah, this cinquain poem has been so brilliantly crafted with impeccable vocabulary and immaculate flow. Your vivid alliterations throughout really kept me captivated and this poem is definitely wrapped in myriad imageries along with poetic depth. "follow fall foliage", "the gray grove greenery growing glean grace" I must say that this is indeed a very creative write, you've used poetic devices so flawlessly here..with amazing flow..
