Eve Roper Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

SEVEN BY SEVEN Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Nette Onclaud Written 4/12/2026 

POTD

LABYRINTH

A grieved pace in a meadow
Haunting last whilst a breeze flows,
Drenched in dried, feverish sweat
Etched on furrowed memories.
A labyrinthine weak heart
Escorted out in the dawn
Alone in an unfeigned world.
