The Last Bloom


The Last Bloom

A tiny burst of yellow
stands out against a
green background.
To look at the
lone bloom, one
might think it
flourishes on
a summer day.
Instead, it is
challenged by a
fall chill, on the brink
of being caught
in a hard freeze, looking
strong when it is
most vulnerable.

Chill

 
A Chilly Night
 
Pumpkins grow faces and
skeletons adorn
unusual places.
The chill may be
in the air or
from the scare of
a story I've read.
Who's there?
I swear I felt a tap
on the shoulder.
Did a ghost
get that close or
was I just frightened
 by my own shadow?
 
What gives you a chill? When you come up with the answer, leave a link to it on the Wordsmith Studio Creative Prompt blog post. Thanks to Carol Early Cooney for this week's prompt-Chill.
