Bestowing thee
black roses,
fore thy
darkness
art comely…
Thou doth
enthral mine
illusions.
Fog does’t
blanket
fear’s fading
storm.
Entwining
dual dreams,
wrapped
twix’t hopes…
Craving
long cold vices,
whilst yearning
thine affection’s
sensual touch…
Bespelled
within
petulant
adoration.

A challenge indeed to write with out repetition and not using the list set forth. I enjoyed this script and think we definately use the words "like" or "and" to much in our vocabulary. The young of today see no value in beautiful language.

Wow! what a lot of rules you set yourself with this piece, and yet you pull it off flawlessly!
I loved the alliteration you used, it really gave it a nice feel and timbre, if thats the right word to use.... sorry, brain not working great today!
So dark, and yet so beautiful. I loved it.

Loved the lines
"Fog does’t
blanket
fear’s fading
storm."
along with the dark quality and sensual tone of your write. Nice and the look to is as if it was in vase form and the rose of your poem is contained therein was the cherry on top.
