dVerse Poets

Without further ado, today we write about cycles of transformation. Anything will do, but your poem needs to have a beginning, middle, and end. Here are some ideas to get you started, but feel free to think up your own. Get creative!

caterpillar to butterfly
tadpole to frog
life cycle of a jellyfish
life cycle of a coral reef
life cycle of a car battery
life cycle of a star
your favorite sweatshirt

She said “‘course you can wear that color”, purchase was made

Your burgundy color was permanent, never started to fade

I wore you through the seasons, ‘cause I never liked a coat

You are the perfect covering and upon you I do dote

Now years later, your soft yarn stretched, making holes

But I always choose you, no matter what the weather doles

The sleeves are nicely long and you might expect

I use them as gloves, the extra length I respect

Sadly now your worn, soft fiber bulk that was used

Shows careless use of hangars – certainly abuse

Still you are my favorite and I will always choose

You as my comfort, if deciding to take a snooze

Someone may say, you need to toss that sweater, dear

But no new one could compare, and I’ll keep you always near.
