The poets sat in a circle. Sebastian stood up.
I gave you the key
You opened the door
And scattered my feelings
All over the floor
But don’t think I’m beaten
You’ve not reached your goal
Twas the key to my heart
Not the lock on my soul
He turned around and walked away.
Belinda blushed, Charlotte shuffled, Cilla stared skyward.
I think we’d better end it there!
…said Chairman Charles.

Good one. Great form and style.

I thought the rule is “third time lucky”. But there’s an exception to every rule. And his name is Sebastian. His poem got all the right results though! Loved every bit of this rhyme and scheme. 😭
