This weeks phrase: “It was difficult, on the whole, to know how reliable they might be” – Postern of Fate by Agatha Christie.
At the ordained hour, they will rise
To try and prevent their demise
Once each century, time so short
Then present their findings to our court
The king to answer every question
Posed to him in precise succession
His advisor must provide him aid
Else both will fail when hearts are weighed
But one alternative is provided
Before their destinies are decided
Their once loved queen to seek and find
Break the curse and leave the other behind
Win her favor, their hearts entwined
Then with her live as blood and bone
The other with only his sins to atone
This curse was written for, Romance Under Wraps, written by Michele Jones.

Leave a comment. I’d love to hear from you.
This is very nice. Great job
Thank you, Sneha. Glad you liked it.
That’s awesome, Michele! I loved it! And I recognized the collection to Romance Under Wraps.I really enjoyed this!
Thanks, Mae. When I saw that picture, I just knew. So glad you did too.
As soon as I saw the picture, I thought: She should tie that into her novel.
So glad you did!
Staci, I thought the exact same thing. I’m glad you thought of that too.
I agree. When I saw the photo I thought of your novel! Good job.
Thanks, Joan. I love when there is a good tie in.
Good poem!
Thanks. I am fascinated by ancient Egypt. In many ways, they were ahead of their time.
Have you seen where they have said the pyramids were a solar energy collector?
I did not see that. I am going to check that out. Thanks for sharing that.

You are welcome. Did you get the link I sent for Finish the Story?? It didn’t show up in your comment section… Let me know and I can post it.
I just found the link in my spam folder. I have no idea how that happens. If you want to add me again to the finish the story, please repost a link. I would be happy to add to the story.
Michele, that one already went on its way, but I will send the next one I get on to you if you want me to? No worries on the spam folder, been there done that and it seems to have no rhyme or reason.
Michele, I have tagged you in this Finish The Story story. Hoping you want to write a chapter 🙂
