Wilma Neels Poet Free verse

A Little Bump

A little bump
  left unnoticed
packed away
   in a drawer
never mentioned
  never given
a second thought,

Out of nowhere
  it reveals itself
painful and bigger,
  back with vengeance
announcing it's arrival
  to sow fear, tumult and stress...

due to not knowing
 a life filled with bliss
awaken
  now transformed into
a life of discord...

Andrea Dietrich July 16, 2010 at 5:33 PM Very interesting one, making the reader wonder what happened. I am glad I got my shock effect with the loon poem. I think some people do not realize it is simply my metaphor for my own "fate" Luv, Andrea
