do serpents really smile? If they actually do, i won't need an eye opener. A speedy leg would do :)

Great choice of words. Keeping it flowing like water down a river letting out into an awaiting deep pool.

Beware the serpents smile. Wonderfully creative in such a short piece.

we are often fooled...and when it is too late...and love is extinguished rather than distinguished, we figure it out...in title did you mean "Serpent's Smile"?

i like "suspicious mate/ retaliate/ seal fate."

love those lines.

[Holly Mason]

thank you sir and yes that is what I meant thank you so much*)

[Larry Dyson]

well written ,does the form have a name ,i'm not well versed in the types Holly..any way you make it work well.Laury

[Holly Mason]

no name...as a child I grew up on Serendipity stories the whole collection as a teenager I read only 17th century English poetry those two combo's equal the way I write now-free flow but with form and always a moral that is what I have been seeing in my writes anyway could be totally wrong
