My Super Superpowers

My powers have few limits. My powers are no gimmick. Three blinks, blinked fast, Grants my powers most vast. If my wish is to fly, I can Peter Pan the sky. Time is mine to travel, Freeze, bend or unravel. While invisible as breeze, I watched Adam and Eve Grapple over that apple To end up forever baffled. I can heal a hurt body, Smooth what was rocky, Stop looming travesty, Derail would be calamity, But for no one’s sake Am I able to duplicate. All evil that I can’t undo Is because I am not two. Much that’s brutal and cruel Still dominates and rules, Leaving me to feel inept Despite my powers so adept.

Gosh, this had a lot of thought put into it. I loved the line about being there to see Adam and Eve while invisible. What a thrilling power that would be. And you left it on a very realistic note. Good luck in this contest. I used an oldie that was for a very similar contest a few years ago!

A great take on 'super powers', CayCay. And, even with these powers..."much that's brutal and cruel...still dominates and rules.." That's the sad part. Best wishes for the contest! 7 Hugs, Sandra

Creative poem, CayCay. That "Peter Pan the sky" bit was a wonderful (if not zany) expression ... Fun to read with a healthy dose of enthusiasm.
