Seven days into the Poem-A-Day Challenge brings us the next poetry prompt: gown. This is one of those prompts that caught me staring at my computer, confident that I would never be inspired. But somewhere, from my inner muse, the following found its way onto the page.
THE WEDDING GOWN
The gown, itself, was lovely.
A beauty to behold.
It brought to mind the future
and dreams that would unfold.
But something stole the moment --
a hidden lie ungloved.
The gown hangs in a closet now,
abandoned and unloved.
