The Feathers of Pegasus

The angelic beast of Pegasus flew over the land of PoetrySoup where he hit some turbulence and lost some feathers The poets would take up with feathers and make writing quills with them and from that day poetry changed forever Poems would be richer in metaphors and abundant in alliterations imagery would be ripe And rhyming would be rich The magical quills of Pegasus feathers performed wonderfully giving the authors Poems of the Day and digital trophies in contests But an army of poets in PoetrySoup came about who did not fetch the magical feathers they would write from their hearts and souls and would compete endlessly against the magic These poem warriors created an endless amount of charm and they would show that cheating is not the blessed way So you must decide dear friend That if ever you come across a Pegasus feather will you use it to quill your prose

I like the mythical tones of your poem. Quill or no quill, I hope each person has enough confidence to not cheat. Thanks for this 'magical' poem.
