A Big Bird Tweeting

Because we've been swathed in silence for far too long.

Prime fears

fed by quiet

The Angel dries our tears 

whispering good news in our ears

We riot

A cinquain for the cast and crew screening comment Michael made.

Slake our thirst in this drought, angel!!

hello?

Where did you go?

Fading now, soft & slow

Were you a fuse destined to blow?

Hello?

Another @aug-kissed inspired cinquain, this time using the prompt Frantic Kisses

Savour

When I

return to you,

starving, seeking your taste,

let me savour your fierce blessings

this time

Cinquain Poetry, Prompt: Kiss

LMK which was your favourite in the poll! (Be nice, it's my first time using this structure). I.

Whether

Upon chalice

Or thine own lips sacred

How I long to kiss and worship

Your sins

II,

Your lips

Pink blush, open

Your tongue calls, a siren

I crash into her seas, willing

Taste me

III.

That kiss

Claiming, desperate

Words swallowed, a goodbye hint

I forgive you my conscience and

I leave

IV.

Your form

My church tiles scorched

A prayer for every cell

Reverent, I grasp your lapels

Bless me IV.

I lay

Whispered freckles

Upon your sprawling stars

Ivory angled nebulas

Your spine

Part of @goodomenspoetry community weekly prompt :)

Which do you prefer
