Was this a contest? I ask because the instructions for the blank was a strong descriptive interesting word int the blank. I can think of a list of words that would be more so that few. Just saying. I love the poem.
I know I’ve read this before—perhaps even here—but I wanted to thank you for writing it. Reading it again reminded me of something I’ve been wanting to write for quite some time.
It fits beautifully with a blog I’m planning, and it truly complements the thoughts I’ve been gathering. Your words sparked that connection for me, and for that, I’m very grateful.
Mind twirls exploring themselves in restless anticipation of dressing themselves in something new and exciting to see. Fun stuff, playing with friendly imagination as one's best friend.
The sun dips lower.
The light fades.
Ultimately, the velvet curtain falls.
Everything becomes dark.
The cool wind embraces me.
Feeling some comfort on the balcony.
All become calm and quiet.
I decide to turn off all lights.
Enjoying the comfort in darkness.
After bathing in darkness,
I find my shape,
Feeling energetic again.
