Sotto Poet Poet Rhyme

Mysterious Hour Muse

Written: January 14, 2026, for contest Sponsored by: Nette Onclaud

                      **************

In a mysterious trice, I saw her,
A hidden pledge, a cluster of blooms.
In a sea of bright chime and dulcet time,
Studded with shrewd pearls of orchid silk.
Under blue skies, she shines as a raw gem,
Soothing melodies gently ease tired eyes.
Mere vent of the psyche is quite shallow,
Gold nails were embedded in her brows.
