Laughing Through Tears — Writing Challenge
Humorous-Emotional Poem Challenge
Again, I struggled to find a little writing inspiration when I came across Ray Day’s poetry challenge, and he asked me to participate when I commented on his article.
And I admit these challenges do help when I am in one of those writing funks.
Ray Day’s Challenge Comments
I challenge you to create a humorous-emotional piece of writing that strikes the perfect balance between humor and emotion, taking your readers on a journey that will make them both laugh and feel deeply. Let your creativity run wild and see where it takes you!
Thank you for sharing this challenge with us, Ray!
All right! Let me plunge right in with this.
Betsy was
bleeding vital
fluids all
over the floor.
She was not
doing well,
for sure.
I rushed her in
for a checkup and
prayed she was
not suffering too much.
She is not a
young filly anymore.
