My Last Sunset

The triple sun set - what a sight,
And colours that I’d never seen,
My captors chirping their delight.
The triple sun set - what a sight,
Before the thirty moons of night.
My fellow captives: bones picked clean.
The triple sun set - what a sight,
And colours that I’d never seen.

Great entry. I haven't entered this one. Brain dead. We are all having trouble getting on and getting knocked off Jack. I am glad you keep trying and thank you for your kind comments. Love, Joyce

This is so clever and the images are great - had to read it three times. Love it!

Interesting use of rhyme and imagery. It feels like a sense of conflict giving the reader something to ponder. Best wishes with your writing. Karen

Wow, we're thinking alike, Jack. I was going to write one with two suns. Frightening image of your fellow captives having their bones picked clean. Best wishes for success in Paula's contest! Love, Carolyn
