Writing Workshop – A Time I Got Lost

29th September 2010 By Susan Mann 6 Comments

This is my entry for the lovely Josie’s Writing Workshop over at Sleep is for the Weak.

I chose “A Time I Got Lost” from her list of prompts. I am going with a poem. Hope you like it.

A Time I Got Lost

I look left,

I look right,

I look left,
I look right,

I spin around.

My stomach drops,

Panic sets in,

Where is my mummy?

The tears start to fall.

Strangers everywhere stare,

No faces I recognise,

I sink to the floor,

Sobbing,

Arms close around me.

I am found….

Hope you enjoyed my poem, why not check out the rest of the entries over at Sleep is for the weak.
