Poetry Challenge Poem
Poem Written in 5 Minutes
Remember this poem has not been edited. If you really like your basic poem then you may want to edit it later for your writing. The 3 words I was given were, precious, breathe, and light.
I will give you these 3 words if you would like to participate in the challenge.
Joy, darkness and forgiveness.
Here is the one I wrote with precious, breathe, and light.
Oh precious breathe warm light,
I know one sees their plight.
Loved ones in misery,
How can we not see their plea?
Would thou be the one who needs,
How can we not help those who bleeds?
Precious ones who cry out loud,
Screaming out above the crowd.
I hear your cries and I will heed,
To stop the pain that does bleed.
Offer now thy wounded hand,
To another damaged man.

Post a CommentGreat work!
Wonderful poem. I have always thought you have such great talent in poetry.
Wow you did a great job!
Very nicely done, Shana. I can't believe you did it in five minutes. :-)
Opps, see what I mean, it SHOULD have read, "we all know that I'm no poet, here everyone will know it, but I thought I'd at least try, rather than sit idle by"
How would we know the Joy, in our acting to be coy; without our own forgiveness, sit still we in the darkness. (we all know I'm no poet, here everyone can know, but I thought I'd at least try, rather than sit idle by). Anyway, yours was tons better. You have a gift at this my friend. Well done. : - )
Nice job Shana.
Good work!
Good quick poem.
