POEM STARTER

Submitted by Mel Davies

Write a fictional story or poem that revolves around the question: are we truly unique, or are we mosaics of every person we’ve ever known?

I'll Never Have A Favorite Color.

I remember my youth and being asked my first question from another child my age: “What’s your favorite color?”


I knew her favorite was blue, so without thinking, I said “Blue.” I never felt connected to the color blue. Even now, when I hear that question I still say “Blue.” just to get it over with.


But now that I'm alone and pondering the question: What is my favorite color? When I really think about it…


My favorite color really isn't my own favorite color.


_Maybe… I'll never have a favorite color._
