#Writingimpact 50 Starters for lIfe

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

Writing impact from https://steemit.com/@rensoul17

created a writing contest based around using some words from a word list - I have missed the competition closing date but I opted to use all 50 words to start each line of the poem I wrote below.

The competition is here:
https://steemit.com/writingimpact/@rensoul17/the-writing-impact-challenge

The word list is here:
Sequence, Music, Coffee, Dreams, Silence, Language, Hidden, Fire, Touch, Rhythm, Train, Invisible, Captivate, Breathe, Thirsty, Vision, Bluebirds, Taste, Pause, Swan, Wind, Pearls, Candle, Help, Heal, Focus, Play, Smoke, Tip-toe, Imagine, Coolness, Whisper, Listen, Grow, Trees, Reach, Shelter, Remember, Ache, Cotton, Smile, Understood, Serenity, Seldom
Masterpiece, Dirt, Dandelion, Feet, Joy, Strong.

The poem uses numbers to show the word list in order:

50 Starters for Life

1   Sequence fails to excite me,
2   Music, however, invites me,
3   Coffee aromas, teas shops,
4   Dreams in reams of solitude,
5   Silence in company of myself.

6   Language only I truly understand,
7   Hidden not by hand but by mind,
8   Fire, deep within my soul,
9   Touch it, it’s hot, feel the way I roll,
10  Rhythm unique, sung out, a touch of cheek.

11  Train for life, train to compete,
12  Invisible wraiths will invite,
13  Captivate with symbolic allure,
14  Breathe, learn to breath, pause,
15  Thirsty creates rash decisions.

16  Vision requires both sight and insight,
17  Bluebirds are seen by strolling,
18  Taste improves with time upon the buds,
19  Pause, feel how things about you are evolving,
20  Swan about for pleasure, never work.

21  Wind the mechanism of your life,
22  Pearls of wisdom, tackle strife,
23  Candle the egg of your decisions,
24  Help unasked, give away plasters,
25  Heal divisions, save others from disaster.

26  Focus hard upon your goal,
27  Play hard, it liberates your soul,
28  Smoke nothing, drugs are an error,
29  Tip-toe quietly through imagination,
30  Imagine only yourself firm upon the tiller,
31  Coolness personified.

32  Whisper sweet nothings to your love,
33  Listen, hear loves impositions,
34  Grow through helping others flourish,
35  Trees together within the forest,
36  Reach together towards the sky.

37  Shelter strangers without asking,
38  Remember, don’t brag, no basking,
39  Ache quietly without a moments comment,
40  Cotton dress aches of others,
41  Smile the medicine of contentment.

42  Understood by Kings,
43  Serenity amongst common things,
44  Seldom ever without the drive,
45  Masterpiece, born to stay alive,
46  Dirt firm upon this earth.

47  Dandelion, my fragrant child,
48  Feet scented, lovingly beguiled,
49  Joy only a parent can deploy,
50  Strong now, prepared for a life of joy.
