🥕 POETRY

Carrots

A poem, a journey

Carrying the weight of the sky Against the skin of her shoulders Rubbed raw, Rubbed bloody; Onward she hiked, Towards the exit, Someday reaching safety.

Poetry Prompt: Pick a vegetable to guide your acrostic poem and then write a poem that’s not remotely related to vegetables at all.

Don’t be shy and submit your piece to The Brain is a Noodle! 🧠🍜

Tagging: Dr. Jackie Greenwood | Gun Roswell | Spyder | R. Rangan PhD | Raffaella Ferretti and anyone else interested in today’s prompt:

Lucy (The Eggcademic) finds that it’s ironic how shortly after writing Writer’s City (about never running into Writer’s Block), she’s jinxed it and run into writer’s block. She has a bajillion ideas and doesn’t know which to start with, so she literally just sat down and picked a random prompt and ran with it. This was the result! What do you do when you have writer’s block?

What’s your next adventure? 🐇
