7 Day Writing Challenge – Day 5
7 Day Writing Challenge – Day 5
Welcome to day 5. The inspiration word is BUTTON. Today I am sharing a poem I wrote. Writing poetry is something very new for me so be kind. If you missed the previous days you can click the button below and it will launch the writing page of my blog.


Wedding Dress
18 buttons I say
Button one represents the day I saw your blue eyes and beautiful smile
Button two represents the night we spent hours sharing each other’s life stories.
16 buttons to go
Button three is for the day you said I would be your bride
Button four is for the day we made that love drive to our new home
14 more buttons
Button five is for that first night as man and wife
Button six is for that first fight as man and wife
12 buttons remaining
Button seven is for moving into our first home we purchased together
Button eight is for preparing the first baby nursery
10 more buttons I say
Button nine is for the blessing of baby number two
Button ten is for the support you forever give
8 buttons left
Button eleven is for being my best friend
Button twelve is for the patience you forever exhibit
6 buttons remain
Six buttons remain because we still have a lifetime to live
Six buttons remain to represent what has not come as of yet
Six more buttons before we start again
I am going to say writing a poem is much harder than a short story or scene. There are so many different types of poetry and as you can tell not all of them have to rhyme. Check out this great post on how to write a poem and different types of poetry.
