Challenge
Summer-into-Fall Prose. Wrap-up Challenge
In five haikus, tell a story about the cycle of life. Start with being born, then so forth. Because this is absorbing the entirety of all Prose. Challenges until October's start, we're giving the winner $250. Winner is decided by a combination of likes, and our panel. And...Go.
Eternal Dance
Tender bud, Spring births
New soul stirs, fresh hope blooms green
A promise begins
Blazing, Summer's sun
Energetic heat fuels growth
Vitality thrives
Glory fades to Fall
Winds shift, ripe fruits collapse
Preparing for rest
Winter's air descends
Blanketing earth in stillness
Quiet completion
Beneath, recycled
Soil of new life, in death
An eternal dance
