Notes About The Poem

Entwined

alone
in the woods
solace they found
within each others arms
creepers

I have to agree with Timothys comments regarding your poem, Paul. It is certainly very intriguing and open to interpretation. I also feel a sense of dark foreboding attached to the lines...Very skillfully done - A seven! My very best regards as always, Paul. :) john

I think that last line is open to interpretation. Are the lovers in the woods the creepers, or are there creepers watching them, unbeknownst to them? Curious what you had in mind. Luck on the contest!

Take your pick, Timothy! Choose from personification, dark and eerie, plain romantic, and whatever your imagination dictates! The aim is to get the readers to explore different avenues and stretch their imaginative strings. A short write's success depends on all this, otherwise it will flounder at the word go! Thank you for your insightful feedback. Regards // paul
