"Amid" means physically in or between. e.g. "Amid the elephants was a single giraffe. It was completely out of place in the middle of all those elephants."
"Among" can mean the same thing as "Amid." e.g. "Among the elephants was a single giraffe. It was completely out of place in the middle of all those elephants."
"Among" can also mean conceptually (not physically) in or between. e.g. "Among the choices that I had been offered, the best one was to walk away." (in this example, the choice to walk away was in the list of choices offered).

-st is an excrescent suffix. The words, often used in poems, end with -st add sound but largely not changing the meaning. in other words, amidst is same as amid, and amongst is same as among.
I don't think you need sample sentences, do you?
