Eight Word Poetry

This week's writing exercise was to write eight word poems. inspired by three images. I thought this was really a fun one, and the entries were all great to read. Some were more like poignant captions, others were poetic snippets.
Here are the results: 



Mama's here
My son.
Always near
Sleepy one.
~Dawn


Sad baby.
Afghan.
 Needs love.
Looks sick.
Hug.   

It's just not fair,
 I'm still so small!

Mommy,
Where are you
I need you.

I really don't like waiting for my food.
~Gail


Sometimes life is expressed in tears.
I'm alive.
~Shen









Emotions weathered.
I don't belong.
Trapped and tethered.
~Dawn


 Reindeer by water.
Where did you come from?  

No one told me about beaches back home!
Misplaced,
Lost,
Sacrifice,
Run you are in danger.
~Interruption

How the heck did I end up here?
~Gail


Wait...
What's this? 
Santa?
This snow is hot!
~Shen






Spirits soar,
Carefree fun,
Simple times
Being young.
 ~Dawn


 Jump into the desert.
Don't fall off.
Bounce.


See me jump.
This is so much fun!

Which one of you 'innocents' is the prisoner?
~Interruption


I hope I don't bounce off this trampolene.
~Gail


Interested
Invited
Included
Joining in
Jumping high
Joyful
~Shen

Love your inner child...

...for she holds the key...

...to your personal power.
A lesson is woven into each day.
Together they make up the tapestries of our lives.
