Prompt: (Skyler’s Prompts) Write a poem about the things we ignore.
Neglected Moments: The Things We Ignore.
Wildflowers floating.
Softness of the waves crashing.
The wind quietly stroking your skin.
Sticky notes abandoned on the wall.
The soothing imprint of pastel colors.
Leaves sprouting in your baby plant.
The echo of hunger rumbling in the belly.
The fluidity of ink running through pearly pages.
Voices in the vicinity that we’ve learnt to deafen out.
A platonic friendship that has outstepped the turmoil of time.
The struggles of a parent who loses track of their life, inch by inch.
