Prompt: Write two pieces based on a work of art (The Swing)
Poem 1:
Full of beauty and grace
No one can let you go
Despite how you fly
You float through the air
Only as high as you are allowed
Until gravity and reality bring you back
To Earth
Away from thoughts that
Keep you soaring
Eagerly, you swing up again
To return to the thoughts
That bring you contentment
Poem 2:
Why do YOU show no worry?
YOU only show bliss
Where others below revel in delight.
Why do YOU look in a different direction?
I guide YOU, But you turn away.
Looking downwards, I see why.
In the bushes, there is a MAN.
Why do YOU think I have no knowledge
Of what is happening?
I KNOW.
Despite being shielded in the DARKNESS,
I find the truth from the messengers of love.
Telling YOU to remain silent and secretive
Of the truth, YOU hide in plain sight.
