Dear Tigress

In honor of the upcoming Chinese New Year.

Dear Tigress

Dear Tigress,
Such wary ways,
How I've missed,
Your ruling days,
But you return,
With the moon,
Your fire burns,
You'll be here soon,
It is the year
Your time has come,
The day is near,
Embrace your freedom
Ox is worn,
He is to rest,
Your crown, adorn,
Dear Tigress.

Ah yes, year of the tiger 2010, Gate Keeper.  Where there's a tiger there must be a tigress too :-)
Alas, if it was a tiger it won't rhyme in the beginning and the end.  Good stuff.

I like this one.  Your rhyming is very effective.

I liked this one, your poetry is starting to flow better, and the poem itself has a good feeling about it. I think that you have given more thought to the structure and the content in this one and it shows.

Thanks guys! I don't normally write poetry (not my forte), and I was born in the year of the monkey, but I thought it would be fun to do some things for chinese new years, plus I'm entering them into my clubs contest. Happy writing!
