Suddendeathpoetry challenge, annoying rhymes!

Today’s edition of the Suddendeathpoetry challenge I dubbed annoying rhymes. The rules are the same as always. Use all 5 words: (Bright, light, right, kite, sight) in any tense of the words. Try to write the poem in one sitting or in under an hour. This rules is really only to try and help quash our inner editors, not a hard rule. Any type of poem is fine. Post yours as a comment, or at least share a link to your post of it so we can all read each other’s. Oh and have fun! My entry is as follows: --------------------------------------------------- Bright was the sun, high in the sky. Light was the mood, dragon did fly. Kite of course soaring, flying so high. Sight to be behold, pleasing the eye Right up above me, gravity to defy.

Bright was the blade that was held by the knight Keen were his eyes as he stood in the light Strong was his armor as he looked to the right A boy was running and flying his kite. He smiled for a moment, as the child came in sight.

The night was not very bright, There was very little light. Today brightness is about right, So I can fly my new kite, And it should be a quite a sight.

The lamppost light, once shined so bright, but on this night it wasn't quite right. The kite had flown high in the sky, its tether now caught by the lamppost tight, til the frustrated man cut it loose with a knife, and it caught a breeze, and flew out of sight.

Bright light shine right into my eyes.. I thought I was going to lose my sight. My soul departed from me like a kite, Didn't realise it was my turn to die.

I can write most anything but writing rhyme right? Not too sure there. You may have snuffed my inner muse.

I was on the beach flying my kite, I felt a chill, something's not right. The sky got suddenly blindingly bright I squinted and looked up, and oh what a sight A huge sky craft with a resplendent light. Wondering what would be my plight I let go of the string that I had held tight I sat there paralyzed until the night The motionlessness I could not fight I mustered the courage and the might To wake myself from this horrendous fright..

eh, maybe. I don't think so, the whole point is in the doing, nothing about quality or lack thereof.

"This rules is"? Let me practice: no typo is right/the sun's blinding bright light hides/all sight of my kite.

One morning, the sun is shining bright And I got a feeling that is light. I went out tagging my kite. I let it fly, oh what a beautiful sight! I know I made something right.
