Cultured Creations – #poetry – #JulyWriting

Pink
A field
Of floral
Beauty, thrives
In the sunlit days
Graceful, on the hillsides
Swaying, in the warm breezes
Ah, ’tis summertime in full bloom
With scented heather, creating spells
Which a man and his Earth find enchanting

July Writing Prompts – Heather pink – Day 10/31

He
Plotted
Against her
She, unaware
Was drawn into him
Demonic sources raged
As fires, aglow, flickered
Against the darkness of the night
Death was knocking, she, ignoring him
Would not let the devil lead her astray

June Writing Prompt – The plot was evil, but she had never even known – Day 26/30

Cry

Sweet child

Let them see

Innocent eyes

Not understanding

Let tears flow freely down

I will shelter you from harm

And never let you fall from grace

For their light is much too dark to shine

But, your light shines much too brightly to dim

Author’s Note: Nearly 700,000 children are abused in the U.S annually. An estimated 683,000 children (unique incidents) were victims of abuse and neglect in 2015, the most recent year for which there is national data. About four out of five abusers are the victims’ parents. A parent of the child victim was the perpetrator in 78.1% of substantiated cases of child maltreatment. (Info via National Children’s Alliance). If you know of a child who is being abused, please…say something. Calls can be anonymous!

June Writing Prompt – And to the eyes of an innocent there was nothing odd about him/her – Day 11/30

The
Faces
Remain here
Haunting my soul
Each one different
But still the same being
This, the house where I grew up
No longer holds fond memories
Instead it bears the marks of a child
Forgotten, alone, fending off evil
An evil that still dwells inside of it
How I long to rid myself of it
Banish it to another world
Yet, I remain stuck within
A gruesome gabled home
With fiendish faces
Always ogling
Rescue me
Fondly
Anne
