Line Gauthier Poet Ode

Quasimodo

Hunchback of Notre Dame
Up in his bell tower hideout
Recluse guardian of
The most famous cathedral
Through all ages
Parisian landmark
Immortalized in world literature
Heart of harrowing drama
What's left of his undying love 
For his beautiful Esmeralda

Caren Krutsinger April 19, 2019 at 2:23 AM Ah, a gloriously wonderful tribute to a story, a cathedral, and a dastardly deed. I am assuming this fire was set? Maybe my imagination gone astray but this poem is a winner, Line. Line Gauthier April 19, 2019 at 3:18 AM Thank you, Caren. Much appreciated.
