Kissa had a small contest on her yahoo loop http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kissaskarmakorner/?yguid=80421025 on writing a poem. I didnt’ enter, but wanted to challenge myself and actually wrote a poem so here it is. 
It was supposed to be using all the letters of the alphabet.
Love Lost by Jambrea
|
A soft caress in the moonlight |
|
Before the night comes to an end |
|
Calm before the storm |
|
Dread slowly rolls in |
|
Emotions explode |
|
Feelings implode |
|
Going for one more touch |
|
Hoping its enough |
|
It never is |
|
Just as the night is about to end |
|
Kneeling before your love |
|
Longing for more |
|
Making the mistake |
|
Not knowing what is wrong |
|
Or the next step you must take |
|
Preparing for the worst |
|
Questioning your worth |
|
Resenting the Sun |
|
Suddenly she is gone |
|
Taking the night with her |
|
Unlikely to return |
|
Vacant is your gaze |
|
Welcoming the death of the night |
|
Xenodochy gone |
|
Yielding to the last dawn |
|
Zen like state altered with no tomorrow in site |
You write poetry too? This is beautiful!
Why didn’t you enter it into the contest?
I have to confess, I don’t know what Xenodochy is. :0

Thanks Jess. I ran out of time that is why I didn’t enter.
But I still wanted to do the poem. 
I like to write poetry, but this one was a challenge for sure! I had a hard time with the letter X and had to look up words. Here is what it means. 
Xenodochy: Reception of strangers; hospitality

I love the poem! It’s beautiful, Brea. And I’m thoroughly impressed with your X word, lol!

I think you should have entered this, Jambrea! That was really neat and I know I could never have done that!
BTW, HI!
