Simplicity

A simple thought; a simple wish; a simple touch; a simple kiss
A simple change, to make life complete, a simple girl so very discreet
Simple spells; cast away; simple thoughts do betray
A quiet night; soon to be awakened by the quakening depths
A simple frog; into a prince; a quick kiss did convince
Change; transformation; beginnings.

    This is sweet! I especially like the lines,
    "A simple frog; into a prince; a quick kiss did convince
    Change; transformation; beginnings."
    I'm such a sucker for fairytale concepts.
    Great job!

  • well now that was intresting~~~I found it a nice write... there are many things i would change about it. like the repeat of simple.. just a thought but other than that great penning poet!!

  • This is really good, but if I may make a few suggestions....

    I think instead of saying "A simple change, to make life complete," you should say" A simple change, makes life complete." That would make it flow better because everything else is short too. Also, this line "A quiet night; soon to be awakened by the quakening depths" feels too long as well for the overall breaks you have in the poem.

    But everything else was amazing and absolutely beautiful. Please don't take my critiques as me not liking it, but I'm just sort of in a cricital mood today. I do realize you said this was your favorite so I hope I didn't insult you.

  • I love it.

    Very good. I'm too busy thinking about muffins and my plan on having a picnic tomorrow to write anything that's actually worth reading, so this will just have to suffice, for now.

      I like muffins. How are you going to go on a picnic if you can't eat, or if your teeth still hurt? AND, can I come?

        I can eat, no problem! Tooth just aches and makes me miserable for a while.
        You're welcome to come, but no, I don't think you can. Maybe next time I'll have a picnic half way between UK and US, and we can both cycle to the muffins.
        By the way, they're muffin fingers; rectangular muffins!

  • I'm not surprised this one a trophy and very unique and beautiful take on the given prompt. Nicely penned.
