It is time for Ronovanwrite’s Décima Challenge and this week it’s the word Stable in the D line. As ever we may, make some kind of link between the Haiku Challenge prompt of Grace and Slip which again I chose to do.

Banished
What evil caused the fall from grace
What caused the fight that banished those
And shut the doors of heaven closed.
Evicted, slipped to earth disgraced.
They were no longer pure or chased.
They lost their wings, they lost their souls.
Still immortal, yet no more whole.
Heaven rent in two, un stable
The bloody war, truth no fable.
The vanquished lost their holy place.

Chaste. I always thought that chastity was overrated and would certainly rather be chased. At my age, as my father would say, “that ain’t gonna happen” 🙂
I love the concept of your poem and the message. It seems that many of the poems, including mine, chose the word fable to go with stable. It seems to be a message hidden within the rhyme.

I do agree, there is a hidden message here! Let’s face it stable is an interesting word. I do love the Décima form. 💜

I agree. It is challenging and interesting to do a Décima. After a while, Haiku becomes mundane.
Dec 04, 2020 @ 07:28:46
I do have to say I live all types of poetry . I have not found any of it mundane yet 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 09:29:49
Then you are a true poet at heart and in thought. I have to admit that I am not. 🙂
My son is the serious poet in the family.
Dec 04, 2020 @ 09:40:55
We are all poets at heart, just some more than others💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 10:12:21
That is very, very true. 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 10:16:22
It’s comforting 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 07:29:10
Your words are never mundane.💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 09:30:59
It’s kind words, like yours, that keep my poetic side from completely giving up.
Thanks. 🙂
Dec 04, 2020 @ 09:41:37
Never give up , never 💜

My son has promised to get my other 18 books published if I die before I can get it done.
With more years behind than in front, my ghost will return to haunt him until he does it. 🙂
Dec 04, 2020 @ 10:19:21
Lol bless him! I’m like you having more years behind me than Infront …we have to make them count. 💜💜💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 14:39:36
Exactly! These years are far better in many ways than the first 50.
Dec 04, 2020 @ 15:10:31
Or even 60 plus in my case 💜🤣🤣
Dec 04, 2020 @ 15:11:32
I had a post in July about turning 70. My son, granddaughter and sister came to Florida to celebrate with me.
Dec 04, 2020 @ 15:13:36
It’s a tad scary, I am three years behind you 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 15:14:25
Inside, I feel 30. The wrapping paper is wrinkled, but the treasure still remains. 🙂
Dec 04, 2020 @ 16:14:41
Exactly, that’s a great way of putting it 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 00:53:10
I like this line: “Still immortal, yet no more whole.”
Dec 04, 2020 @ 00:54:17
Thank you Frank you are so supportive, thank you 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 01:18:59
Powerful words, as it is in all your writing…!
Dec 04, 2020 @ 07:26:53
Thank you so much 💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 05:26:45
Ooh, this is very good, sis!
Dec 04, 2020 @ 07:29:49
Thank you Sis 💜💜💜
Dec 04, 2020 @ 20:35:06
Wonderful words!!✨

You’re welcome!!😊
Dec 04, 2020 @ 23:10:28
Excellent, Willow.
Dec 05, 2020 @ 00:13:40
Thank you Chel
Dec 04, 2020 @ 23:22:21
I really like this one, Willow! Chastity is highly overrated 😉
Dec 05, 2020 @ 00:13:20
Yes indeed, but fallen angels crave it 💜
Dec 05, 2020 @ 02:59:14
I can’t blame them! 🧡
Dec 05, 2020 @ 07:28:16
Lol 🌹❣️💜
