Fable

A Fable Sonnet I was flying high, yet it was hot my wings were tired Spotted a well flew down and sat by its side leant forward and saw me in the still cool water, but I saw something else a dark shadow pushed me and I fell into the cold water, looked up but the evil wasn't there and as the sun was going west daylight disappeared, but luckily for me, I had sharp talons and could claw my way back up to the rim of the well. It was night and evil sat by the fireside reading a book of magic I couched its eyes out its scream brought thunder and hailstones and evil ran outside to cool his dead eyes he fell the well and called for help what could I do a bird with silky feathers I flew up to the sky and his screams bore the suffering of humankind
