A Flash

A flash and my mind goes numb
did I just see this girl walk past
my heart stopped beating and time stood still
just enough time to gaze at her beauty

A flash and I had to act quickly
before this lady left my life forever
how would I get her to notice me
my hopes and dreams rest on this second

A flash and I reacted on instinct
her hand came into contact with mine
a jolt of surreal knocked back my senses
this girl just overloaded my mind

A flash and my eyes met hers
a small smile crept on her face
she knew my thoughts and I felt hers
that was all it took to win her

Fifty years later that lady is still with me
How I remember each and every flash of our lives
our children our grown and our time is dwindling
what a life I have lead and it will end in a flash.

10 Nov 2008

This poem today was crafted from seven words provided to me by tweeple on twitter. I really enjoy doing this contest where I just ask people to send me random words on twitter and I create a completely original and new poem using the crafted words from scratch. It only takes me about 10 minutes to create a poem once I find a common theme for the words. Let me know what you think of today’s contest poem. (All of the Twitter words provided are highlighted in blue)

Waiting For Your Return

We embraced and said our goodbyes
You would return soon
Time has now slowed to a crawl
As I sit at home thinking of you

Sing me a song in the coldest of winters
Where the wind blows and chill sets in
My sweat will freeze into icicles
My heart will crystallize until it feels your warmth

Love is the only verisimilitude
All I do is lay at night
Waiting to witness your majestic beauty
And this absence leaves me with an excruciating loneliness

So I lay here feeling blue and care to remember
the last time I felt your kiss
our eyes danced with each other
and our hearts beat as one

-Poem By Dragon Blogger
