The First Thing You See

Wake up dear Titania
And open your eyes to love
See what comes your way
And dote upon it
As if it were me before this
Dreadful fight over the Indian boy

Wake up, dear Lysander
Wake up, dear Demetrius
Search for your lovers
And wed them tonight
Along with the duke and his
Lovely wife

Puck, I must say
You have done something here
With the cupid's miss
That hit that flower
But now everything is right again

Author notes

Option 5 (titles)

the title more or less inspired me more than it actually fits the poem.

    AWWWW! this is cute! All the references to the play is great. Amazing that that is what you thought of when you read the prompt. woot!
    The ending is the strongest point!
    Cool line - "With the cupid's miss
    That hit that flower
    But now everything is right again"

    Great job and good luck in the contest =P

    Makes me want to break the wrapper on the movie and watch it now(lol. Also, it reminds me of my college days in the english department where we had to write reports...fun that you took me back there(lol). Good luck in the contest.

    Very nicely done. At first read, I didn't quite understand how the title fit the poem.. but then I realised that the characters were from A Midsummer Night's Dream and it made more sense. Love how you used them to get your point across. Excellent conclusion; the last line seems to draw everything together.

    Thanks for entering our contest and best of luck to you! :]
