Eagle’s Eye – A Seguidilla

Eagle’s Eye

So I might fly to great heights
I was born with wings
To soar high above the earth
Seeing many things
Hunting here and there
With keen eye sight sharp and clear
My prey unaware

Grace is hosting D'Verse Poets tonight and has prompted
us to write a Seguidilla.
A Seguidilla has seven syllable-counted lines (7,5,7,5:5,7,5),
and rhymes the second and fourth, and the fifth and
seventh lines

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

  7. What a joy it must be born with sings and to soar like an eagle. This was well done. Thanks for joining in! Hope you had fun with the new form.

  12. The bird and the poetry form fly so well together. You should look at Earthweal this week and the Animal Gaze. Your poem would fit well there too as the bird looks down on us!
