Imprison Me


Beware the dark of azure twilight
where lightning's arc will lure the sprite,
their wings, so stark, like velour midnight,
fair creature's that mark the allure of starlight.

Share thy tongue sweet lark in pure delight.
There, where spark of amour and passions ignite,
fair, the heart will embark on seas of obscure rite;
ensnare me, oh Plutarch, immure my soul with your insight.

James a magnificent piece, worthy of 1st place. This should be judged on it its merit and skill level. It is not a spelling contest. I applaud this wonderful creation of yours and from reading the other impressive contestants, if I were judging, it would in all honesty would have given you the top honor. Be Blessed my friend...

Wow Michael, I'm sitting here chuckling. Thanks for the support but I will accept what Beth has chosen and her opinion. She was correct about the spelling and it is her contest so I will respect that. Thank you though.
