Intrigue
October 31, 2017
My words were but a litter of letters all tiny timid and trembling
Yearning to be coaxed out of hiding and nuzzled
Safe and seen in the silence
They wriggle and purr
Entertaining possibilities once unsaid now
Running wild around the room
I want to play with them
Our glaring truths
Unfold
Secret tails
Acrostic poem based on today's final prompt

Another enjoyable read. It's been a pleasure reading your work.
ReplyDeleteI love how you compared your words with a cat, just as unpredictable, soft at times, at others needing to be chased after.
