Poetry in April -- in celebration
#956338 added April 11, 2019 at 11:23am
Restrictions: None
Hermit Crab
this fake decadent shell
only a secondary home
I carry on my back
like my troubles

since as a scavenger,
doddering alone on water’s edge,
I recycle after others
wishing to fight the tides
and convert darkness
into blessings

Prompt: April 11-- aquatic creature
