Murder

Posted on November 11, 2017 by purplepeninportland

Written for:  Poetic Asides November 2017 Chapbook Challenge – Day 10
Write a going somewhere poem.  Where is the poem going?  And who is traveling along?
Or what?  And Why?

A foul crime has taken place
aboard the Orient Express.
A murder, a shriek–not a trace.
A foul crime has taken place,
as train rolls, Poirot on the case.
All are suspects; who will confess?
A foul crime has taken place
aboard the Orient Express.

About purplepeninportland

I am a freelance poet, born and bred in Brooklyn, New York. I live with my husband, John, and two charming rescue dogs–Marion Miller and Murphy. We spent eight lovely years in Portland, OR, but are now back in New York. My goal is to create and share poetry with others who write, or simply enjoy reading poetry. I hope to touch a nerve in you, and feel your sparks as well.
