Challenge
Summer-into-Fall Prose. Wrap-up Challenge
In five haikus, tell a story about the cycle of life. Start with being born, then so forth. Because this is absorbing the entirety of all Prose. Challenges until October's start, we're giving the winner $250. Winner is decided by a combination of likes, and our panel. And...Go.
Life’s game
Oh, how simple and
pure a child's breath is in the
emerging moments.
Character forms and
the belief that all of the
world is to be gained.
Not a second for
another soul, too caught up
in the storm of life.
Dismay takes its hold,
As you watch your children give
way to life's harsh winds.
Regrets form and a
time of reflection dawns 'til
the last breath of pain.
