"Betrayal" is indeed the ultimate pain. Wonderfully written, creative and perfect as a Pleiades poem goes. Smooth rhythm throughout. Well done.

Betrayal stings as it
Brings hurt to no measure;
These words brings to life the hurt of betrayal. This a very well constructed piece following the requirements of the contest.

Well done

I think this is the first Pleiades I've encountered--intriguing particularly since I enjoy alliteration so much. Your poem certainly captures the sense and pain of betrayal. Once again the picture you chose represents your theme quite well.

Hey! I'm in this contest, you weren't in it when I signed up, what's going on???? Ha ha, sorry just messing with ya mate.Excllent offering Sue, have you done a Pleiades before? You are brilliant at these structured poems and again you prove it with relative ease friend, definitely a contender, which makes me nervous, ha ha...NOT! I'll bring a bit of heat to combat bitter cold wind of betrayal and see how we go! Very nice my friend, gives me something to aim for, a couple of tweaks and I'll be ready!
GOOD LUCK!

You use haunting words, and I can feel them because I have been there. You express it all so well, "Brings hurt to no measure," oh what a grandiose phrase.

A very well written poem. I like the fact that every line starts with the same letter. Very good imagery and descriptive scheme. Good luck in your contest.

Oh, a hard one to read but really good. "Beyond words--it crosses Borders of ill intent, Burdens meant for the core"
Great word choices to make your point. excellent
