WRITING OBSTACLE
Submitted by Bernard Wicks
Write a poem or story that reads as if it is beautiful, but is actually about something rather tragic.
For example, you might write about a beautiful sunset in an apocalyptic world, or a poem about the good things about heartbreak.
Eternal Sun
Pink and Purple fall
The most glorious thing I have ever seen
The dewy petals shimmer as they go
The fog allows the sun rays to shine
Like nothing I have seen before
You were my sunray
You were my pink and purple
You were the dew on my petals
Like nothing I have seen before
Now you are gone
This is all I have left of you
Even your garden is fading
Still glorious on its way out
Just like you
The winter is coming
I will have no more pink and purple
No more petals in the sun
Just our old memories
That’s all I need
You now have eternal sun
