British Poet Offers £7500 Reward

Poem with a £7500 prize.

Tintagel, Cornwall (PRWeb) February 9, 2007 -- Camelot Castle in England, the birthplace of King Arthur and home to one of England's most loved poets, John Mappin has released the poem "TIMELESS" with the promise that anyone who can correctly guess exactly what the poet was thinking about when he wrote it will win a £7500 pound reward.

"The answer will be absolutely obvious to anyone once they realise it," stated Mr. Mappin.

Hundreds of entries to the competition have been arriving at Camelot Castle from all over the world.

What is exciting is that the competition has now itself given rise to many other poems being written in response and the Timeless poem is causing a catalyzing effect in the poetry world and across many school and homes.

Camelot Castle has long been a retreat for artists and has been the British home of the poet for several years.

The poem reads as follows:

TIMELESS

The rehabilitation of an eternal mind.

How do you unwind,

An eternal mind?

Do you sit in the dark with your eyes tight shut?

Or turn on the light and fight.

Do you dare your demons to come out in one day?

Or hit them with all your might.

Do you keep your shadows in yesterday?

Or do you try to recall what it meant to play.

Do you wait for the dawn of a new spring morn?

To find fresh dew on a flower.

Or do you dance in the circle in the light of the moon,

On the solstice's witching hour?

..........

Just how do you unwind,

An eternal mind?

John Mappin 2007
