Poetry Palace

Poetically poised on a dainty hill Overlooking ever blue seas Eagerly awaiting this surreal ILLUSION Turrets made of imaginative calligraphy Ruins that echo CREATIVITY Yearning to belong in this poetic home Paddle your toes in the moat of letters Allowing the INFUSION of words to make a sentence Listen to beautiful melodic lyrics in the great hall Attic of ancient and famous sonnets ghostly sing Carrying you EVENTUALLY to high emotional state Ending up, it's INEVITABLE that you live forever on the dainty hill By Emma Buckeridge For contest "Poetry Palace" 2nd place win

Emma you took yours to a whole different level, quite brilliant I would so.. So many highlights but the "Attic of ancient and famous sonnets ghostly sing" stood out for me.. Wishing you all the best for the contest ;)
