| His features were solemn, terse and tense His face was pale, in anticipation He spoke deliberately, tried to make sense Of the latest news event to befall Our troubled nation now. His face was pale in anticipation Leaders’ decisions had caused a ripple Of words he conveyed to the nation They were not uplifting, there is ‘no joy’ In his news for viewers today. He spoke deliberately, tried to make sense The images flashed across his desk Parsed his words, spoke of defense His hands clenched his notes tight He blinked back tears tonight. The latest news event to befall Becomes his last news report ever For everyone he speaks to now As he tries hard not to quiver, Orange-red images fall. Our troubled nation now reflects a troubled world; Our solar system’s bow is the end of planet Earth. For our newsman’s final story, he has a front seat berth. ____________________________________________ Prompt: Persona assignment For: "~ The Poet's Place Cafe~"  Form: Stanzaic cinquain Syllabic Pattern: 6 to 10 Rhyme Pattern:abacc, etc; Assignment ▼  Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.~~Robert Frost |
