eyes falling
wanting

Now this one has so much imagery in so few words. Very nice. Makes you want to reach out to this girl in purple, lift her head up, and tell her to follow her dream.

Nancy -- not this one, but it's still open for deciphering...

Noah:  There are plenty more in store...  Thank you.

Kacy:  Compassion can go a long way, as can empathy.

John:  Indeed.

faterider:  Congratulations for seeing beyond the reflection.

I enjoyed, and what is this twenty or less, I have no idea!  I must be out of the loop as usual

Hi Kay, and season's greetings to you.  Thanks for stopping by.  "TWENTY OR LESS..." is simply a style I introduced to PIP a few months ago where one chooses twenty or less words to express something subjectively interesting or meaningful -- there are no other limitations to this free verse style.  Due to its minimalism, it is highly interpretive and a lot of fun to write (and very interesting to read the replies, too!).  Give it a shot, if you're inspired!
