Loch Ness

The lightning strikes and all is dark, the Lock Ness Monster is about to embark on a journey along the ocean’s shore, more diligent and courageous than before. She is strength and beauty combined, a delicate creature, so hard to find. Her head crept above the water quiet yet stark. She strolled through the mounts with might, ready for the battle of any nightly fight. No one could mess with the immense Lock Ness, and I admire her colossal power nonetheless. She’s redeemable, stupendous and severely tough, wearing leather skin so resilient and rough. She’s my favorite mythical creature, I must confess. Brawn and firm with a head that slithers, her veins always hydrated, they never wither. Fading under the moonlight she slides under water, sleek and stealth like her mother taught her. Never stops swimming, she’s aquatic that way, only pries at night, never during the day. Never once has a great white shark fought her. Long necked with stamina and vitality, with an original and intense personality. Muscular and sturdy with gazing eyes, a tawdry creature with a slippery disguise. Potent by nature with energy and force, always swimming on the righteous course. She’s got a puissant form, intelligent and wise. The lightning strikes and all is dark, her head crept above the water... quiet yet stark. Loch Ness Poetry Contest January 4th, 2017
