I Am a Worm In Spring

I'm the worm Persephone’s minions found;

Blackbirds drinking from Apollo’s brewery

Warbled their songs into my gloomy bedroom,

          For the Feast of Spring.

Michael, I like your poem although I am no expert on shappic stanza writing, I think it is a good entry for the contest, 7, and thanks for visiting my poetry

Thanks BW, I'm sure there are a few things to sort in this one, but I liked the way this composition ended. Maybe fix it later - sometimes it's the journey that's important and not the destination.
