Shangri-La

Shining in great beauty
Sits this lovely home alone
Surrounded by some flowers
Softly flowing long rivers
Serenely lifting is fog
Separating as it lifts
Sliding into the sky

Author notes

This beautiful painting reminds me of a Shangri-La. I'm not good on syllables.

    Good title. A nice attempt at this form. Nice imagery and tone. Nice expression of feeling. Nice alliteration. Please see rule 1 of the contest. Each line should be 6 syllables in length. Your poem fits the picture for which it was written. Thank you for your entry. Shelley

    This is a lovely piece of poetry. I think your syllable count is off a bit, so be sure to check it before she judges. I wish you the best in the contest.
