G is for… Gaping
~ by Laurel Regan
(Pssst… new here? Welcome to Alphabet Salad! For background on how and why I got involved in both NaPoWriMo and the Blogging from A to Z Challenge, check out this post… and, if you’d like to catch up on my progress to date, my challenge posts are tagged with Poetry from A to Z. Glad you stopped by, and hope you’ll return!)
the words played coy today
refused to be corralled
skittered off to hide in dimly-lit corners
darted out teasingly, then retreated, giggling
leaving little more than a
vast
cavernous
gaping
maddening
emptiness
in place of what could have been
(should have been)
brilliant thoughts
pithy observations
wise reflections
perhaps they’ll behave tomorrow.
