Mercy

Her exploits captures the imagery of my mind
My hindsight paints the picture I long to erase
Confronted by judgment yet she got my behind
The trail of glory she urges endlessly to blaze
No one would have considered a second chance
She fought tooth and nail to bring me grace
Like a courageous knight with a mighty lance
Verdict of the enemy could not match her pace
Then I pondered she must be from a royal lineage
Maidservant from an ancient royal line, she exclaimed
Which could only be traced to the ancient of days
Her victory set the pace for grace that I now maintain.

i liked your poem alot check out some of mine tinygirl.

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
