My Button
Written for "EXPRESS IT IN EIGHT, topic: sew on a button


I lost the button off my shirt,
But found it lying in the dirt.
Should I put it in my pocket
Or store it safely in my locket?

Maybe I could tie it to a string
And watch the little button swing.
I'll sew it so my shirt stays closed
Ensuring my belly is not exposed.

About The Author
My writing doesn't follow any set genre, it's interdependent of my mood and all that's taking place in life. I'm still finding myself, what I write constitutes the markers along the path of that journey. With time, many things will manifest in my work and perhaps I will pursue one or two genres. For now, it's not, "What type of writing is my passion?" "Writing is my passion."
