It's Poppy Time
A Poem For Poppy's Prompt #10 and the Vocal Sensational II Challenge.
Introduction
This is for both Poppy's Prompt #10 and the Vocal Sensational II Challenge.
Although it is only five lines I will make it difficult for myself by including one of Poppy's words on each line, making it Acrostic (using "Poppy" as the word) and with an ABABA rhyme format.
The music is "Kiss That Girl" by Pop Will Eat Itself (also known as the Poppies)
Poppy's prompts are:
- Dart
- Drought
- Splinter
- Fate
- Key
It's Poppy Time
Please Do Not Try And Hurt And Hit Me With Your Dart
Oh Hear Me Listen, I'm Not To Blame For Your Drought
Perhaps I'd Taste Blood If That Splinter Hit My Heart
Please Can You See That I'm Not Here To Seal You Fate
You Know The Key, Smell The Poppies Before We Part

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
