A Song of Doubt

An entry in the mid July '10 Words I Give' contest, used in order given.

 

A Song of Doubt

 

There was not a large explosion,

It was more a long corrosion,

 

Like a Hamster running round

In a wheel, yet always bound,

 

Flimsy hopes of something great,

Ransom note that came too late,

 

Kidnapper who chickened out,

Confident but lost in doubt,

 

Harvest of the barren ground,

There is nothing to be found,

 

Turquoise sky in dying light,

Stars that flicker signal night,

 

Available to the few,

Holy enough to follow through,

 

Crabs that scurry with the tide,

Doubt consumes from deep inside

You are very good at finding verse & rhyme for each given word. I am, yet again, awed by the talent.
You've got the knack and the vision to back it up. Very well done! Kudos.
