An Exemplary Heart

Submitted by Rula on Tue, 2021-01-05 15:58

She cried but all in vain
to who drove her insane.
Though wrecked, with dominant pain,
she survived, she rose again!

A lesson to obtain,
A lesson to learn or feign;
Ne'er blackmail Her in strain,
She's a brave heart in reign.

'Again' wasn't really repeated. Line 4 (again) while in l2.stanza 2 (gain) , but I took you suggestions and eddited accordingly with too much appreciation.
Always great to hear from the experts sir Alan.
Thank you

My only criticism...

is one of tenses. While raised is conceptually right, I do believe that the proper word would have been [rose], not raised.
I like your title, the internal rhythm is great and it flows well from beginning to end. It made me think of a queen of hearts!
[Not the one who said; "Off with their heads" LoL
