A Poem: Early Gift

in Freewriters4 years ago

Hello guys and welcome to my entry for the thursday prompt. I'm really loving the 5mins challenge has it helps my spontaneous creativity.

Sorry I came late to the party but here goes;

•`•

Fickle sickle tried to pry
the fruit from a tree so shy
it only blooms in summer.
Can't exactly place where this
memory crawled out from
but I'm glad mind is occupied.

Occupied by a lie that lives
have fed from my harvest
and men have eaten from my table.

It's a zombie land here, with
children limping around with
their ribs calling out for help.

Realized I never fed them,
they only had left overs
that muted my inhibitions
of bragging that I've fed many.

This clarion call is my early gift.

Yeah not sure where that came from too as I detest horror movies lol. Thank you for your kind words.
