Challenge
Write a myth, based upon the one thing that inspires you EVERY single day. A myth is usually telling the story of how a natural phenomenon came to be, but you can also create your own. Inspire those who read your story. Write in any style in 100 words.
When the music stops
Fine lady in
the dappled dress
I see you hover
at the door.
How long before we
see you no more?
The ball is over.
Not long, I think.
As you may guess
I fly to the
call of instinct.
Lady please tarry,
I would wilt
and die of bliss
to taste
a single kiss.
Your hasty wish
is granted.
Hear my spell:
'Nectar drunk,
prince enchanted'.
As the clock
strikes the hour,
words are spoken.
All mortal bonds
are broken.
The magic's done:
the prince a flower.
He glistens on,
one more lordly bloom
frozen in the lady's bower.
