A Sonnet To Neopoet 🏆 Winner

(Read More...)

Resurrection

From weeping skies, a fallen angel spills,
Unfurling wings, escaping heaven's hills.
Her reign once mighty in the halls of hell,
Now tears betray the sorrow she can't quell.

She cherished life, embraced each fleeting breath,
Shielding us from shadows, pain, and death.
More than mere holiness, a vibrant soul,
With boundless love that makes us whole.

No earthly cause explains the sudden blow,
The lightning's flash that brought her down below.
She gave her spirit freely, this we know,
A tapestry of starlight she would sew.

Where once we saw a fall, a sinful plight,
Now love illuminates her endless flight.

Resurrection

I loved this poem.I have not seen anything like it.That showed a lot of creativity to me. Everything came to life and the pictures were deep in my mind. It's not your usual fallen angel story.I like the ending too. It felt like a resurrection must be like and I give this a 10.

Hello Mark

Always great to read you and sonnets always have a special delicious taste to them, don't they?
I'm sure you're aware that some lines need your visit as they are one or two syllables more or less, and sure you don't need me to point them up so as to make this a perfect Shakespearean sonnet.
I just wanted to say that I've been here and enjoyed the taste of this one.
BTW, I thought we should write something about Neopoet, (at least what I've been told).
Thank you for sharing my old friend!

...hi Mark...

I can't remember you writing a sonnet here before. Judging from the technical merits of this one, I hope to see more from you. I enjoyed the vocabulary the most, I guess.

Each line ressonates

Congratulations. I see you were serious about winning!

I would need to write about each line and end up with a few pages of praise...but, this was all shades of amazing.

"...endless flight"

Thank you!
