Day 4 – Content

Pintrest - Poem April 4

Trusty old comfy well worn shoes

Full of comfort and often used

Never rubs, tears or bruises

First choice for everyday uses

No nasty surprises, safe and warm

Dependable old comfy shoes worn

 

Day 4’s challenge

For Day 4 the challenge was to use concrete nouns to describe an abstract theme like an emotion, i.e. sadness.

When I was struggling with chronic stress I wrote a lot of abstract poems to express the darkness I was battling without feeling too revealing. I already felt vulnerable enough without exposing myself. I’ve also used it for erotica but I am shy about how others might judge me for anything filthy. I thought about using it to express a strong emotion but I’m just happy, so I wrote about being content.
