Micro Poetry ~~ The Day

The Day When 

Her bones turn to dark emeralds

Hues of green, admirable sheen

Guarded she'll be, teeth of gems green

Brazen thieves their wares they pedaled 

Her blood will turn to fine Merlot 

Drink of queens none finer for them

Hair of shining gold, fine emblem 

Dreaded thieves their wares all aglow

Emeralds, gold, wine undid her 

Thieves.  She's sold to highest bidder

 - Kerry's words for us, "Today is the day we put the "mini' back into the Sunday Mini-Challenge, and return to the option of form poetry. The object of this challenge is to write a poem in no more than 10 lines (but you may write in fewer than 10 lines all the way down to a single American sentence). Choose your own form or write in free verse, if preferred... our frame of reference is "Dark Emeralds" - from the final line of this poem by James Wright" again at the Toads link above.
