Caterpillar Dreams

I am but a caterpillar in the tree
My heart filled with a crazy dream,
I can see where I wish to be
Yet it is too far for me to reach,
The fluttering breeze nuzzles my face
Bringing longing for places beyond,
I know a change is coming
And someday I shall have my wings,
Aching for that day brings me
Out to this branch,
I overlook the world
Feelings hidden away, locked in place,
I sing to myself
Caterpillar caterpillar do not fret
Someday the world shall be yours
Someday you shall dance across the sky,
Someday the world shall be yours

About this blog...

All poems posted here are written by myself, and I hope the ownership of my work will be respected.

I am 25 years old, and have been writing since I was 8. All poetry is dedicated to the teacher, Miss Charlotte, who first introduced me to this genre of writing.

Challenges

I use several writing prompts, mostly photographic prompts, for my work. Often when I am not consumed by a thought or emotion, I need a little help in writing. I subscribe to two photo blogs as listed further below for prompts. I also take challenges to write about random words on my Twitter. A new challenge I am using is from Deviant Art. I look at the first page of the most popular photography in the last 8 hours and take one to write about.
