Prose to Poetry
Look back through your old work. Find an original piece of prose (could be a story, reflective thoughts, etc) and convert it into a work of poetry. Can be free verse, haiku, whatever you please! :) If you would like, include a link at the end to the original prose piece. I've included my own entry as an example. Have fun!

Recovering Trying Times

The challenges and trials

Lasted a long while,

Beaten down and weak,

Every day of the week.

I thought I wasn’t strong,

But I was so wrong.

One day I just prayed,

Relying on God to guide me,

To give me hope to cope.

My troubles once doubled,

Began to subside in size,

Eased and decreased,

I was infused with peace.

Today I’m not as stressed,

Sometimes I get depressed,

A remedy for the enemy,

Puts it to rest.

The past is gone,

I’m moving towards

Looking forward

To a better tomorrow,

Free of sorrow.

Bound to a place,

With a smile on my face,

I call it my happy space,

Where peace lives,

And pure bliss exists.
