Kickstarting the Poetry Editing Section with some Prompt and Poetry Exchange!

...See more This is our first initiated activity for each other in the Poetry Editing section!  When writing, we often hit a creativity block and are not sure of what to write. Suggest a topic, person, place, or any prompt or theme to help another generate an idea to write poetry for!  Our wonderful poets will be given a chance to express their creativity, and you as a prompt-giver, will be gifted with your very own poem!  ~ I hope to participate with you all too!  - Your Comrade, Ruhi :D ------------------------- Taglist  @burningRain127 @HarmonyBlossom @HatsEatYou @HealingTalk @juliak1968 @LoveMyMoonflowers @Rareshadow666 @ShySmiler @tommy @Torean @YourCaringConfidant @mytwistedsoul @nessapressure05 @sadcat13 @MunchkinBerry @limegreenKiwi7397 @incredibleRainbows2036 @Est3lle @BelovedMe @unassumingEyes @iloveyouxx 
Criticism?

...See more So...@ComradeRuhi is this how you're supposed to do it? (ask for criticism?) is it in this section? please do tell if i'm doing it correctly 😅 Anyways, my poem: Nature’s thoughts December mist, wisps of butterfly frost flutters down on trunks and bridges, a decried chrysanthemum once sun-kissed, golden brown,  left bruised, marred on its core; once, in a moment of time.  The wild bear’s hibernating on the clear pathway, not giving a sign of a groan or a stifled roar.  Lilies and hyacinths stand still kissed by pellets of glistening snowflakes, with army ants going down the log, lodging, carrying scarce morsels of rotten apple.  In the morning air before birds can be heard chirping, the pack of disheveled wolves come slivering with  serrated teeth ravishing the scent of curdled blood.  The sky’s murky and gray, like unkempt swamp water with planktons and bluegills gliding below in pairs on river streams full of half squashed plastic cans.  Day in and day out, in waning sun and luminescent stars, the uttered thought of nature wakes in different sounds of howls and wisps, in whispers and unfettered thoughts, in arctic poles and sahara deserts; once, in a moment of time.
