NOTE: I've never tried one of these "create a poem with these words" prompts because I thought I'd be  bad at them but I actually really like this one!

​TW: Death

5) Write a poem using all of the following words: smooth, soothe, work, dark
https://www.creative-writing-now.com/creative-writing-prompts.html


Bang!
The shot flies through the air
Screeching in my ears,
Whirling past my hair.
And before I can blink
My skin’s no longer smooth,
Blood is pouring
And he’s there trying to soothe.
It’ll be alright,
It’ll all be alright,
Just close your eyes.
I swear this’ll work.
Stay calm and breathe slow,
Hold on don’t let go,
Just close your eyes.
Dark.

NOTE: Sorry most of these writing prompts lately have been poems; my wrist has been having some problems and poems are a lot easier to type up than short stories. 

A mountain https://writersrelief.com/2018/12/14/125-of-the-best-poetry-writing-prompts-for-poets-writers-relief/

It towers above me
Standing up tall.
The world is so large
And I feel so small.
The challenge is daunting
But I must move on.
For if I don’t face it,
I’ll surely be gone.
So I must start to climb
Higher and higher still,
Past boulders and ice,
And up and up until
I reach the top of the mountain
And can see how far I’ve come
And then when I’m up
I’ll start heading back down.

The day a child was born https://writersrelief.com/2018/12/14/125-of-the-best-poetry-writing-prompts-for-poets-writers-relief/

TW: Mentions of death


The memory of you burns my soul
Whenever I think of it I start to cry
Why did you leave me without a thought

I didn’t even say goodbye

But now I have this small gift
The one thing you left me in this world
I hold her in my arms bundled in cloths
My sweet beautiful baby girl

She has your gray eyes
She has my ragged hair
And she’s crying now too
I try not to care

But she belongs to you
As well as belonging to me
Now she’s the most of you
That I’ll ever get to see

354. Turning Point: Write about a point in life where things turned for the better or worse. https://thinkwritten.com/365-creative-writing-prompts/

I look at him.
He looks at me.
This is the turning point.
His hand on my waist.
Do I stay, fight, or flee?
This is the turning point.
He’s always just been my friend
But now that all might end.
Should I run?
I don’t know.
Cause this is the turning point.
Here I go.

Hey.
That’s what I want to say
To you.
I want to hold your hand,
Ask you how you do.
I wanna tell you that I
Really really love your hair.
I want to smile at you
And not have to hide my stare.
I want to take your wrist,
And grab your face,
And hold you close to me.
I’ll lean in as you do
And tell you that I love you.
Hey.
That’s what I want to say.

When day becomes night https://writersrelief.com/2018/12/14/125-of-the-best-poetry-writing-prompts-for-poets-writers-relief/

There’s a time everyday
When the earth turns away from the sun.
The day becomes dark,
All the light is undone.
The life goes to sleep,
And the shadows awake.
When the earth keeps on turning,
What else will it take?
When the light becomes shadow
And the day becomes night,
It’s dark and it’s awful,
But it is quite a sight.
But when you begin to worry
That night will forever reign,
The earth will keep on turning
And dawn will come again.
