This poem was written for a prompted poetry contest using the atom poetic form; which is similar to a haiku in that is has 3 verses, but instead of a 5/7/5 syllable count, it utilizes a 5/7/5 letter count and can have multiple stanzas. This was my first entry of four. The other three were: On Morning Addictions, On Five Golden Rings, and On Love’s (Shelf) Life.
