Vine

There was a vine
Twined round my wrists
A vein that flows
From heart to lips
Mouth bound to speak
Twisted about
Over my head
In dreams and doubts

There was a vine
Twined round a tree
A leaf that hears
the hollowest plea
flourished greenry
on rotted limbs
forest way
forced amends

There was a vine
Twined through my thoughts
Tangential losses
Over coffee plots
Somewhere the root
Holds its hearty grip
Somewhere the branch
Cracks another lick

There was a vine
I’m clinging to

    These have a great sound:
    Tangential losses
    Over coffee plots

    Love this. The use ofrepetition of. "There was a vine' twined..." works well. Great sound to this too when read aloud.

    It may cause some difficulties entwined by it but still it provides a link for survival. This is often true in many real life situations. Wonderful lines Maria!

This is where you write something so I know you were here. And where I will sometimes write back.
