Watch: can you see it stirring
The murky water 'round
Can't you see it slither
Though it makes no sound
I feel as though I can't stay here
That awful pulsating of dread
We must get out before it's too late
Or it's going to have my head
Author notes
It's not that great, but I gave it a try...

Dear Felissa,
This was a wonderful poem - you did a great job using the picture for inspiration.
Good Luck in the contest!

Very well done. You described the fear caused by the terror in the water. Good luck in the contest.

I can't read this poem. YOu need to change the font to white, or switch the gree and black, or something... I hate having to highlight stuff to read it.
Ummmmm I really like the rhythm of this poem and all the rhythmic words you used. It gave the poem a very percussive feel. "Stirring." "'round" "Pulsating"
Great visual, too. I can even smell the murky water.
Good luck in this contest.
