Refuge

alliterisen Righteous refuge, our Father's planned pledge, "Hope has endless safe sanctuary in Me." Heaven's hope, eternal Eden. Perdition's plot is the devil's delight; Satan sets no strict standards. Many mad, pompous pooh-bahs may find vanity vaunts a venal vista. November 5, 2021 contest: Alliterisen - 7 Lines Poetry Contest sponsor: Joseph May

thanks, Joseph. I can't resist a new form. I had not written alliterisen before; but will certainly put it on my list to use again. I appreciate your generosity.

How do people survive without it? Some don't. I appreciate your comment so much, unrelated to a placement in contest. Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
