Gift that I brought wasn't plain Hope wasn't given in vain Brought not a lovers' knot But in it you got caught One thing that's ascertain The knot was preordained Love in open hand brought What has life's love wrought? Sponsor:Brian Strand Contest: 8 lines max

very sweet this is,Sara. I like that part, "bought not a lover's knot, but in it you got caught!"

A beauty that's compared to none is this gorgeous write here! I really enjoyed this poem that I have read this evening! My favorite line has to be the, "The know was preordained" as that says a ton right by itself! I just love your write Sara! Great Work!!
