VISUAL PROMPT

Prompt submitted by Tenshi

Write a poem about what streetlights make you think of.

City Lights

For some reason,

they feel, warm…


the city lights.


After a long, dragged out day,

criticism,

pessimism,

I just want to go home…ism.


But I don’t.


I sit outside the coffee shop,

a soft breeze caresses me as I wait for my coffee—

a momentary peace I wish would last forever.


But alas,

this day will repeat itself tomorrow,

and the day after that.


So for now,


I’ll enjoy this momentary peace,

as I sip on my coffee,

waiting for the weekend…


wrapped around these city lights.
