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.
For Now I Am
My very first pain here
away from mothers pure warmth
cry for now then laugh
Laugh as colors blow
round in circles of free hope
Laugh for now then grow
Grow into myself
spread wide my fledgling wings
Grow for now then live
Live with the bright day
create, love, know, explore, exist
Live for now then die
Die at last in peace
I return to mothers warmth
Die for now, don't cry
