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.
Life as I know it
...At once, I'm awake.
The world is so bright and big
Mother holds my hand
I can't stop talking.
Speaking excellently, I
hold my head up high
Met a guy I liked
Fell in love a bunch of times
Got my degree! Whee!
Sad days didn't slip
by like ships in the calm night
They took all they could.
But happiness is.
And the rest goes down as it
always does: anew...
