You left me in the blink of an eye,
And I just don't understand why,
I did nothing wrong to you.
My skin feels cold to touch,
I miss you so much,
Yet you left me
Hanging down
Pretty
Dead.

Crab Canon
Write a story whose first and last words are the same. Author's Note: What I thought about right away was the poetry format for a crab canon. It is known as a musical piece, but I have seen it in poetry. Rhyme or not. An attempt to write the same words but with a slightly different meaning. First written forward and then backward.

A Transparent Look at Vocal Challenges and Top Stories
Almost three years ago, we shared a resource article that served as a place for people to suggest new challenge prompts. We thought it would be a good idea to refresh that thread, and take the opportunity to answer a few common questions about top stories, how challenges are judged and how submissions are reviewed.

🌹🌹🌹🌹 Thank you 🌹🌹🌹 🌹🌹 🌹
I like the way that you chose an image of a flower with its head hanging and then the way your last lines mirror that. Nice.
Great imagery for this one, well done 😁
The poem is great. But Does your first line have ten syllables, is it supposed to be nine. Do you need to recount or maybe I am getting it wrong. I have not done any, so check again.
Sadly, this happens wayyyy to often. Loved your poem!
Wow. Beautiful
A very heartfelt poem.
Powerful heartbreaking entry!!! Love it!!!❤️❤️💕
