Winning Poem
The Quill-Poet's Parley
By Rula
With a rustic nib, burnt out and done,
An undusted feather laid down, forlorn.
Whispering days an endless despair,
"Forsake me not in the attic's stale air."
"I had the aspiration, I had the will,
I always admired you, my precious quill.
You were my pal through tough times,
We often crafted some good rhymes."
What happened then? What went wrong?
Why did you neglect me that long?
Did you desert me for a better friend?
Could this be our friendship's end?
"Never shall I relinquish you
For we're one, never two
Revive my quill, let stories ignite
Together we'll conquer the glooms of night."
