You may look now,
out frost-washed windows
as lights form your name
and I unwrap the presents
of your smile.

Written for the `ArtistsForCharity Winter Contest [link]

Salient details:
Writers: Your entry is a poem that will be added to a mug with `ArtistsForCharity colours and theme.
It must be a short poem of no more than 5 lines.
Make your poem stand out; we are not looking for a Hallmark card. No need to spend time on an artistic presentation of the poem - it will be judged on the writing alone.

Entries close November 1.


The title is simply 'Surprise' - the contest requires us to have 'lit' placed after literature entries.

One day, I will learn the art of granting poems quality titles. Until then, I am well aware my titles are bland, I'm working on it, so you can all bite me :)

Benedictions all!

Aww!

Trying to learn freeverse. I'm working right now on tiny poems - i.e., concise but deep. Then I might move up.

But I'm no Christmas-writer... So I'll have to survive without the contest. ;)

Cheers,

You don't know me.
So don't act like you do.
Don't ask me either,
'Cause I too don't have a clue.

i'm not so fond of it now :(

the comma might work better for me if you reverted the first line back to someone speaking it.

and i'm not liking "lights form your name". i dunno what it is about it, but for me it just doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the poem. :shrug:

*EldritchCabal - Go, be inspired, and get to work!
and everytime i read the last two lines, i keep thinking of presence, which someone suggested in dAlit. i kinda like that idea.

<salshep> It's true
<ordie> You're write. That's my one-size-fits-all reort.

#Cabal. Because someone needs to be.
wow - nicely done - congrats on the contest.
You could be the artist with no titles on any of their work.... then you wouldn't have to worry.
