POEM STARTER
Submitted by Cheyenne King
Describe a moment in life which seems to last forever.
You could write this as a poem or story, or as a descriptive paragraph.
Crescendo
Turning up the volume once again,
I indulge
Into my happy place:
A world of chaos silenced
With one button’s press
Dries a tear’s descent down my face-
My mood bursting into flames
Untamed and bright
Bold and free
As a wildfire scorches in harmony
In a moment that seems to last forever.
However, as the chorus begins to fade
And the outside world pours in,
The wildfire becomes
A mere spark
A broken component
And then I remember
That a moment that seems to last forever
Is still only
A moment.
