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.

      Thanks, Ron. With 3 on the go something’s bound to wrong. Just a matter of which one did the damage!

    A cleverly conjured poem to cast a spell on the few who knew. Nicely done, Keith.

    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. 😭
