50 word story contest week #14 (light)

in #fiftywords7 years ago

As an elderly man sits on his porch,
Looking at the sunlight fade,
He realizes so will he.
Everything has a start and an end.
With tomorrow morning’s light,
Comes a new beginning.
Some days will be clear,
And others darker.
So enjoy the light when its bright.

I have learned about the fiftywords contest by a fellow steem friend @masyl

Sort:  

The realization of the old man, the sun setting just beyond the horizon--striking imagery that conveys a lot of emotions using small amounts of words. Great choice for a topic. This was wonderfully made, and is the first entry that is below the 50-word limit. Way to say more with less!

This entry has been read and graded. Best of luck!

I.m happy you found the true meaning of the poem

You wrote it effectively, so it wasn't hard to do :)

Very nice.
Indeed, "enjoy the light while it's bright!"
:)

Good work! It is super clean, not a single word wasted. I think I would have a very hard time being so precise.

cool piece.

thanks my friend
