The exercise:

Write a four line poem about something that is: caught.

Today was a better day. Not a big hurdle to clear, but I'm happy we did.

Mine:

Big Buddy rolled slowly through the hideout's halls,
Quite certain of who he sought.
For none but Charlie could have followed him there,
And this time he would be caught.

It feels like either Buddy or Charlie is mopping up here, though I guess the Master is still alive and technically on the loose. I wonder who will win...?

Caught
Entraps the Robot’s shell and pulls it back
To Robot-hell wherein machines fight men
In never-ending wars and for a long
Forgotten cause. The portal closes tight.

I know it's a little off the prompt, but this came to me in 5 seconds so I thought I'd share

Sparkling crystal in the air
Glowing bright, glowing fair
Containing all my hopes and all my dreams
Within my hand I call to thee

Greg - well, we've nearly reached the end now. Hard to believe we've made it through to just two weeks remaining.

That's a fantastic entry you've got there, by the way. Especially like the first two lines.

Ivy - I can see a tie in to the prompt, but even if I couldn't I would still appreciate this poem - particularly the first two lines. So don't worry about it!
