Chasing The Urge

Posted on November 25, 2019 by purplepeninportland

Written for:  Sunday Whirl, Wordle #431

Words:  beam, chase, bond, scream, once, puzzle, sit, found, lit, born, wish, dance

This poem is a race, it
chases the urge to sit still.

This poem is wish-born,
lit by a moonbeam. Once
she danced, and found
herself bonding with
music. Where did it go?

This poem is a soap
puzzle, a way to wash
away screams in the
night. As long as she
is racing to chase that
urge, she will continue
hunting down those missing pieces.

I hope to touch a nerve in you, and feel your sparks as well.
