This is the first time I have done this, so forgive my sad attempt at haiku:
Forgive me, I'm new
Like the new skin on the snake
Exposed to the sun

We forgive you. This is very good, actually. One thing, though. The game we play is that each poem starts by repeating the last line of the poem above. I'll take it from yours.Quote:

Summer Beach, bright sand
His black curls burn copper
Shining Greek boy
Virgil, I couldn't resist, memories of cleaning up after my dog in NY surfaced. :)
The shining Greek boy
Threw his dreams to heaven, but
His hopes turned to ash.
His hopes turned to ash
Sorrow spilled quietly from
His small quaking frame
Great use of the verb, "spilled." Very good one.
His small quaking frame
convulsed slowly on the ground.
The gang ignored his plea.
Thanks, Virgil.
The gang ignored his plea
Life is taken so lightly
In desperate worlds.
In desperate worlds
We'll shad a tear for you
Weeping our souls
Weeping our souls
Hearts rationalize life loss
Faithful exhort Faith
Faithful exhort Faith
Persuade me so i'll believe
Can you hear me God?
Can you hear me God?
Seems You don't have any ears
Good I hear my Self.
Good I hear my Self
My voices shall trembe the night
So you'll hear my scream
So you'll hear my scream
My expletive deleted
My retort frozen
My retort frozen
My voice remains unspoken
Faced with this danger
