In my poems would be found colorants,
For the foul-smelling deodorants:
An advance interception of rants;
I’m dealing with human beings, not plants!
With Poetry busy like The Ants,
To deodorants shall be more grants…
In my poems exist, too, colorants
And when they find the space sibilants,
Their piloting pen Phonetician
By linguistics made Sound Magician…
Here and there purposed attacks of fact,
No doubt, for the sake of impact;
Yet, with Candor a Palpable Pact
If not the case, would have cons packed.

SIBILANT SESSION
Struggling in simple silence
Sudden static sounds survive
Supplanting a sort of serenity
Serving to satisfy the several
Sulking in sole secluded state
Seriously spiteful in severance
Still seething, seeing something
Senses stealing any sensitivity
Stopping a shiny silver smile
Sending signals to slowly sink
Submerged in silent salty seas
Sibilant souls sadly surrender

A soft breeze whispers
through the trees in the mountain,
as birds sing and chirp.

'S' is a Sibilant
So is the letter 'Z'
Sans one of my front teeth
Sounds a tad more like 'Zhee'
'Say' and 'See' ~ 'Thay' and 'Thee'
'Stay asleep' ~ 'Thtay athleep'
'Sanks a lot' ~ Thanks a lot!

Swish of withered leaves
In the depths of the forest
Evinces the tense calm
Before an approaching storm
Leashes its contained fury
