Sentiments

Sentiments
(An Ultimate Pleiades)




Sober thoughts start this saga,
Seeking sense from sacred sand.
Searching out a sane solution,
Satisfying questions sincerely sought.
Science can't scratch the surface,
Shuck the shoe that fits cosmic scorn.
Separate sentient spirits are really scarce.

Send out sentimental stimulation.
See if all life is the same.
Seriously sense the same sensations,
Share the guilt of blame or shame,
Since only humans seem to savor sights.
Speculate seeing other species sad sentiment
Short of being beings thought simply slight.

So sing a song that's seldom sung!
Should all creation share salvation,
Saved by His sainted sacrificial stand?
Scrutinizing scores for someone's sake,
Sanctioned by the Savior Supreme,
Scrambling for affection's source,
Settle each soul's sacred strand.

Stated in the sacred scriptures,
Seductive Satan set a secret scheme,
Sold to Eve our sorry fates to seal.
Said the serpent ,"It's surely Safe."
Selecting apple seemed so simple,
Still we're sentenced by scathing sin,
Saints and sinners seared the same.

Cosmic sentiments about souls and salvation.

This is a Pleiades in its extreme or ultimate rendition. Actually it is 4 Pleiades.
Pleiades: This poetic form has a title with a single word. The poem itself has seven lines. The first word in each line begins with the same letter as the title. There is no requirement for rhyme or meter.
What makes this an Ultimate Pleiades (beyond the 4 stanzas), is the fact that it has maximum alliteration of the starting letter,S, and in addition, the last word of every line starts with the same letter too. Therefore, each line starts and ends with the key letter, and as much other alliteration of it as possible to still carry a theme.
