Ok......the object of this Object Challenge is to write a short poem about an everyday...object!

I'll choose the first one and then the one who posts first can choose the next one.

The first object is....................Egg Timer

Sand:
I feel that time is slipping,
As I fall through the hourglass
a miniscule trickle, each grain
a part of my being -
And I slide through the space
of so much new and unexplored possibles
Oh, how I feel that time is slipping,
but hardly running out.


*eh, not sure about this.. Straight off the cuff.*

How about.......The Wind


The Wind

Cold breath chills my cheek
The mighty oak creaks and groans
Whispers turn to roars

Do Haiku count?????

Nice, anything counts so long as it's poetry.

ALEXE feel free to start a new object, if you'd like. It will be great to keep things moving along.......

The Wind:

A tender whisper
carried far
to places here
in this heart.
Feeling it
across my lips
and it tastes
respectfully
of you.

lol great one, Lady Poe, made me smile at the end smile.gif but very nice piece altogether

I wrote this on my first post here, in this topic, before I understood that the topic is already set, and not free-choice, that's why I edited biggrin.gif but if you say I can start another object well here:

It didn't make sense??? And I didn't notice it? That's not right!

Like it again, just as I liked it before :)




Still can't think of a decent Toothpick one.. but give me a moment or two or three.
