Fantastic Four

Listen to poem:

Written: November 23, 2023 __________________________________________ Dreams and fears dwell in a magical world. Fantastic Four Warriors have been shown. Reed, the smart mind, extends his word. With aptitude and genius, he leads alone. Johnny, the human torch, blisters fiercely. He glows at dusk with his drive, rising clearly. Ben, who embodies tenacity, is penultimate. In a stone facade, he was loyal and ultimate. They're the Fantastic Four, a fearsome force. Will unite to protect the world's unending course. In a vast, thrilling world of choices and wonders. The Fantastic Four represent their thunder. Their odyssey led from space to the sea floor. Brave and proud, they fight evil and strive for more. The ideal four bands and their foes shiver with fear. Reed's wit, Sue's veil, Johnny's fire, and Ben's spear Hope glows in a wide and fantastic universe. Their fortitude is adaptable to any reverse. They overcome adversity and become a family. Their hearts blaze gloriously and effortlessly. Elastic-powered Fantastic Four bear their place. Their pursuit of justice culminates in an embrace. Their fights are not only physical but also mental. They find hope for a raw dawn whilst being gentle.

such a wonderfully rhythmic poem, Sotto. I'm not familiar with the Fantastic Four, but you've described them eloquently, peeking my curiosity. They remind me of many of the classical heroes-Hercules, Odysseus, Achilles. The fantastic four fit the hero archetype known for their noble qualities, courage, heroic deeds, and extraordinary journeys, as they face challenges. You've expressed these qualities perfectly in your poem. Well done, sir! Have a great evening, your poetess friend, Sara

A masterly magical poem from a master of poetry with, as usual, an elevated diction, a flowing rhythm and rhymes of choice. It portrays the Fantastic Four as in a dream or on the big screen. KG.
