Challenge
Another challenge and this one is tricky so, please follow the description.
Write a minimum of three, no more than six stanzas – four lines each. Except for the first stanza ... each of the following stanzas must have the last word in each line start the next line, this is commonly known as Loop Poetry. The winner will receive the “Loop" Award Certificate. I will start this off so you can see exactly what I'm describing and be sure you tag me in the comment box this way: @Danceinsilence, otherwise I may not know you entered
I set my eyes upon the darkness
I felt its never-ending gloom
I wallowed in its sorrows
I drank from its vacant spoon.
I stepped into it gladly
Gladly it took my hand
Hand in hand we walked in silence
Silence showed its full command.
Commanding all that was in me
Me to weak and vulnerable to see
See the good behind me
Me in darkness we’re now Queens.
Queens of dark and tortured people
People too fragile to find their way
Way to crawl out of the silence
Silence would not reflect the light of day.
Day is bright and warm
Warm brings comfort to the soul
Soul feeds on what is given
Given to us all.
All of us are wanting
Wanting to feel the warm bright sun
Sun that fills the darkness
Darkness that consumes the human soul.
