OKAY
For those of you who like to write poetry...or short stories...Oh hell! If you write ANYTHING!
This was a writing excercise that was given to me. It took me personally around ten minutes or so to complete. I am going to post the prompt as well as the poem I wrote.
February 10 2009
Consider a famous fairy tale/nursery rhyme/fable/ or prose poem. Provide a new ending for this traditional story.
Write about what happens when the world ends
Write a poem about the first dreamer’s response to the first dream in history
First kiss/feeling of love/memory
When the world ends
When the sun forever sets
Disappearing from the sky
When every tree bends and turns to dust
When things begin to die
The earth will forever stop
It’s turning spinning sphere
When all the stars fade forever
When nothing more is clear
The last of us will stumble
Blindly through the dark
Reaching grabbing for pieces
Where light forever left its mark
Searching for brightness, sun
For the warmth that it sends
For the last of us will be forgotten
When the world ends
