Poem for Japan
Poet and fiction writer Gretta Barclay used the eight-word prompt to write a short poem of sympathy for those lost in the disasters in Japan. The prompt words are: rumble, clarity, music, sense, curiosity, daisies, run, experience.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Japanese Disaster, 2011By Gretta Barclay
We heard the rumble of the waves Before the waters came rushing in And the music stopped, A moment of clarity before we were gone Just after we turned our heads With a sense of curiosity To see our garden daisies die. We had no time to run An experience sad for all mankind.
