The Lonely Search Metrical Form For Contest

(METRICAL FORM) THE LONELY SEARCH Innate tremendous beauty dwells in words That surpass all visions --- wilder than the shade of purest blue-- No trilling song that I have ever heard, No surrogate-- can surpass the purist elegance that I pursue. Each night my dreams entice that I will find A kindred body whisp'ring words I long to hear-- But--waking fear my restless hungry mind Holds me doomed in isolation...dreadful fear.
