Comment from Cecilia A Heiskary
This is a great 2-4-4-12 poem. It appears that you have the syllable count correct. This is a well organized poem and it flows nicely from beginning to end.
Well done and good luck in the contest

Ciao mystery poet, you now have two votes.
I loved watching the series Vikings, but in all honesty, they were brutal when they landed up north in Scotland.
I sure would not have wanted to be on the receiving end of their axes.
And they had some real brutal methods of torture like the blood eagle.. ripping along the spine and opening the rib cage like wings.

Your poem is so powerful! I loved how you share this peaceful image of the beach and it turns instantly to the violent actions of the warriors. It's so striking! It feels like a we are seeing a piece of history. So well done!
