On Having Lunch at Panera

The din resonates
Countless voices frantically
Proclaim facades and personas

Below the cascade
Simplistic souls stand
Wall flowers alone and longing

Within, a voice asks
Shall we dance?

  5. This is a cool poem, Kim. It's operating on many levels.

    You asked if I had favorite writing prompts. They are listed on the sidebar of my blog, but my top two of the moment are the 100 Word Challenge at Velvet Verbosity and Sunday Scribblings.

    Have fun with them!
