The Slut's Surprise

THE ****'S SURPRISE

                                               Saucy Spring
                                               Resenting relingquishment 
                                                    to her sunny sister--
                                               Left in a huff
                                               
                                               Over her shoulder,
                                               Slung snow crystals
                                               With a ferocious 
                                                Exactitude
                                               Crushing the rosy hopes of
                                               Apples-- vulnerable
                                               in their 
                                               Fragile state of bloom

Just That Archaic Poet August 22, 2013 at 6:03 PM Hilarious title, and beautifully worded; thanks for the cool and interesting read :) Victoria Anderson-Throop August 26, 2013 at 4:04 PM you are the first to comment on the title...this is a title that I love, too....maybe some of us have a quirky sense of humor, eh? Thanks for the positive reinforcement...

Okologo Uche Ken May 1, 2013 at 7:52 AM Good work with a real professional touch. Pls I don't mind if you mentor me and take me through the rudiments of poetry. I personal love poetry but it is not in line with my career or study. Thanks. Victoria Anderson-Throop May 2, 2013 at 3:27 AM Will put you on my list of those to read and comment on....have patience with me, though, my internet here in alaska is very slow! (glad you liked this poem, it was fun to write!)
