As the Moment Before the Storm

Her two sides were best friends

Both quiet

Kari possessed a shyness

Sablehair was laconic

Both quiet

As the moment before the storm

Sablehair was laconic

She loved the sting of combat

As the moment before a storm

Was the extent of her supremacy

She loved the sting of combat

As did she adore the apple blossoms of spring

The extent of her supremacy

Was the crux of her appeal

As did she adore the apple blossoms of spring

She did the art of war

The crux of her appeal

Kari's gentle nature

She did the art of war

As the kunoichi

Kari's gentle nature

This was a mighty weapon

As Sablehair

She was fatal with the bow

This was a mighty weapon

Kari possessed a shyness

Sablehair loomed in the horror of the shade

Her two sides were best friends

    good poem

    It really upsets me that I can't rate more than 5. I really think someone should talk to the administrators about that. It hardly seems fair that this poem can't get more than 5 points. I mean, really, they should change that policy!

    WOW!!!!!!! Kevin, I kid you not, this poem gave me chillsm (GOOD CHILLS!!!!!) WOW!!!!!!!!!! I literally had a physical reaction to this poem!!!!!!!!! WOWEEEEEE!!!!!! I have a feeling this comment is going to be another LONG one!!! The intensity of this is overwhelmingly GOOD!!!!!! I honestly can't pick out a favorite line, because frankly, line by line, this poem is a POWERHOUSE!!!!!! I've got to say this yet again, and please don't misunderstand all of your poems are excellent, but these blow excellence straight out of the water!!!!! These poems about your lady warrior is rich in description and psychology. You can almost see her two personas!!!!! WOW!!!!!! You've really got it. I mean you have really got it. I wish I could write this good, I mean that. You've really got it!!!!!! Again and again and again, GREAT JOB!!!!!!
