I am a thermal floater ,
A finger flutterer,
Calling for a takeaway treat.
I am an alarm screecher,
A lesson teacher,
Not sneaky,
you know I am near.
A rampant rodent scoffer
A gliding hunter
Keeping farmlands clean.
I am an Auditory mesmerizer,
With my soaring cries,
I am a sorcerer in disguise.
I am beauty,
I am a Red Kite.

I took the childlike kenning and inserted the concept into a freestyle poem, I believe it made this creature come alive. Another new route for me inspired by Lynn Whitehead from the Suffolk arts link. I like to play with what I feel safe with and try new forms, at least I try, … but did it work?. How do you push the invisible boundaries? I would love to know, talk in the comments below I will respond double quick.
