Prompt: Isolation
An elven nation in isolation. Hidden by enchanted vegetation. One insurgent. Broke the spell. All their safeguarding veils fell. Destruction by fallacious ambitions.

A forest that only the lost can find. An enchanted woodland, warm and alive. Its comfort — a mother’s womb. Nature heals all lost souls’ wounds. A place where only the broken can thrive.

Prompt: History
History starts with an invader’s vow. A dim man. His dim men. Their lavish scow. A trespasser’s wretched flag. Stabbed it into foreign sands. History ends. The fool, dead by arrow. Art: Newell Convers Wyeth (1882-1945)

Prompt: Adversity
Weary from adversity, she slumbers. Her hunger — pure agony. They hunt her. Mortal darling. A mistake. The claim on his skin — cribrate. Her sole comfort, a stake from her lover. You can find this poem, and the rest for this contest on WattPad: https://www.wattpad.com/story/306715590-moon-gate

Prompt: Echo
Munted remains of a mossy moon gate. Tangled in marigolds, it marinates. Nighttime’s zenith, it yawns wide. Lures our children. Echoes lies. At first light, its maw shuts. A golden grave. Trying my hand at limericks. You can find this poem, and the rest for this contest on WattPad: https://www.wattpad.com/story/306715590-moon-gate
