silent words

when I can't write and the words are trapped between dimensions I feel as though I too am trapped in the moment, meant to simply sit and feel the pain of silence.

Challenge

Word Play Time! Try to write a piece with every word starting with consecutive letters of the alphabet, like this: ("A Beastly Challenge, Don't Ewe Find? ") Miss-spelling allowed, as long as it makes readable sense. I wonder if anyone can make it through the whole alphabet with a coherent story?

Ah, but Commander Duncan Edwards fought gallantly! He immediately joined, knowing loss menaced. Never outdone, Private Quincy rushed swiftly toward unsuspecting villains, with xenophobic, yes-man's zeal.

Final Farewell

Pounding waves

scour the sand,

erasing lingering

remnants of

essence of you.

Moonlit rays waft

through still water,

touching down

in loving sobs,

embracing daughter

of the sea,

slumbering gently

swathed in

azure breasts

of ocean waters,

interlaced in hammock

of seaweed weeping.

Ocean solitude

gathers you

in loving arms.

Challenge

Write the most meaningful, emotional thing you can think of in 30 words.

Unspoken Apologies

I'm sorry, Mom.

That I couldn't protect you.

That I can't help my temper,

Or excessive profanity,

Or my depression.

Sorry I couldn't stop the cancer from getting to you.

Challenge

Here's a borrowed one I really loved: Write a seven line poem about one of the Seven Deadly Sins. Each line can only contain seven words. TAG me in the comments @PhynneBelle #7deadlysins

A Fool’s Pride

Shower me with your wealth and goods

Feed me before yourself; I am hungry

Be glad to satisfy my every desire

As I lay limp upon my bed

Serve me, or else I become enraged

Out of all, I am the best

The source of it all: my Pride.

Rookie’s First Post

Hey y'all! I'm Rane, I've been kicking my feet for 18 years now, excluding the gestation. I'm an early graduate, so I'm delivering pizza until basic training in June 20. In that between time, I dream to be able to publish a book. So I got Prose! With this app, I wish to be able to not only improve my skills, but also find other authors to show me how they did it! Well, that's all that's relevant I believe. Thank you for having me, hope I can be an amusing guest!
