10-Flights of Fancy

Flights of Fancy

(a 50-word ekphrastic poem)

The three kings traveled far

as they followed their star

and they seemed very wise

as they surveyed the skies,

but their fine-feathered friend

would soon come to his end—

they saw Icarus land

but not where he planned,

so they stopped at an inn

where their story would begin.
