Challenge of the Week C
Innocent Perspective. You can write about anything you want, but the events that unfold must be seen and/or interpreted through the eyes of a child. Perhaps it's something endearing. Or enchanting. Or confusing. Maybe even haunting. Whatever it is, it's a child's experience. Fiction or non-fiction, poetry or Prose.
Where Did Mommy Go?
I didn’t get to go home
Aunty had to get me
In the office I sat alone
Wondering why mommy can’t get me
Aunty told me to get in the car
I asked where to
She said not far
Mommy couldn’t get you
We got to her house and I saw daddy alone
I asked why he was crying
He said mommy wont be home
Mommy is sick, but no longer dying
Dying?
Mommy was fine when I left for school
Daddy must be lying
Lying went against our rules
He said mommy got sad
Mommy did something bad
Mommy wanted, but couldnt smile
Mommy wanted to go away for a while
He said mommy will be back soon
She’ll be back soon
