Hi PUPA,
I know you have written this as a contest entry using their words, but I find there to be a lot of thought in your poem. As far as I'm concerned your poem sends a powerful message that all need to read. At times we all get caught up in those trappings and forget the important things in life. Excellent rhyme and flow with an important lesson. Can't get much better than this. Good luck with the contest and thank you for sharing. God bless and best wishes!

Nicely done. This piece was short and too the point. I found no errors as I read it out loud. The poem told its tale and it was good.

Lucifer WAS God's most beautiful angel. And indeed not all beautiful packages are what they seem. Excellent analogy in this contest entry. Best of luck to you. Blessings always, Linda

Comment from skye
This is a very dark poem, using the required words effectively. Your poem is well crafted, with dark and edgy feelings and images. I like the idea of trapped by the devil's wiles...
Great artwork.
Well done.

Great use of words -- warning of the temptations all around. And the real value of a fool's gold. Good luck in the contest.
