Thank You, Shyness

Shyness is okay

Express yourself in a unique way

Create with words; that’s your spare time

Alone in your room; a lone bell chime

The social talk, run, express

For they try to impress

My heart longs to join

The social; fitting in like refined brown coins

“Why must we fit in?” Shyness asks

“When we don’t have to wear masks?”

Masks, false features of who we are

Thank You, Shyness, for taking me this far

These Legs

These legs are flawed

They are stiffened

Hair ridden

Stumbling

Rough

Cramped

Bony

Weak

They can not step gracefully

They can not relax

They can not slow down

They can run

They can jump

They can kick

Infallibility

Glabrous

Loosened

Luxuriant

Strong

Smooth surface

They are perfect

They are strengthened

These Fingers

These fingers are cold

They are slipping

Frailed motion

Wandering

Clutching

Sharpened

Pained

Achy

These can not knit

These can not hit piano keys

These can not withstand cold

These can write

These can grasp

These can feel book pages

Straightforward

Relaxed

Blunted

Ease

Indolent

Strong movement

They are beautiful

They are creative

Dog Frolicking in The Grass

Feet rustles amass

What is that? I wonder

From the distance I perceive

A dog frolicking in the grass

The dog is Peace, he is Energy

He is energetic centrally

Lazy, he will never be

Slobbery pink tongue out, panting

The dog is never ranting

About worries, care-free; enchanting

A fuzzy brown head lifts

Against my palm; I pet

Heavy, breathy panting sounds

The fur makes its rounds

Of transferring in my hand energy that bounds

The fur is rough, yet soft

Do you feel it?

Peacefulness is calling

Do you hear it?

The Last Magic Sword

The last magic sword

Is sharp toward

All who try to pick it up

As if it were a cup

Blue flames erupt

If the sword becomes interrupted

The sword is gray

With vertical rays

Of gold and bronze

Lining up through the blade

That, once it slays,

Glow with a mix of yellow and orange

Showing off its storage

Of powers

Who Do You See When You Look in the Mirror
A stranger looking back at you? A gorgeous person capable of doing anything? What do you see when you catch your reflection in the mirror?
write1 in Stream of Consciousness

In the Mirror

In the mirror

Growing deeper

Is an picture

That flickers

Of a girl

Growing up in the world

Yet, inside, she doesn't

She still feels as if she wasn't

Still feels like a kid

Walking fast as if a skid

Of stone through a river

Challenge
Hook Me
Write the best hook to the beginning of a novel. Must start with the words "As my world burned...". No longer than three sentences. Tag me!

“As my world burned...”

As my world burned, I saw so much destruction. Ash filtered across the air, homes became wrecked as if broken pieces of wood. All I see now is orange and yellow colors; raging across my body...

Challenge
Sound.
I've always been struck by how vividly memories are tied to our senses. Write about a specific sound and what it makes you remember...what it makes you feel.
write1

Sound...

The banging sound

Is like numerous hammers pounding on the wall

Or loud music, with digitized rhythms and lyrics,

convulsing through my body; as if it were a

hollow tree trunk

Challenge
The older I get, the....
Finish the sentence! The older I get, the... (Inspired by the song Older by Sasha Sloan)

The Older I Get...

The older I get

The more work I have

School, responsibilities collapse onto me

Like a crashing wave

Against soft, yellow sand...
