Poetry Prompt on Metaphoric Introspection

I Am a Sponge

I Am A Sponge

I am a sponge

in a library

full of ideas

from fellow writers

and I soak up

the expertise

they share until

filled and overflowing

I can douce others

with words

and the flow of ideas

carries on.

*This poem was initially published in The ShortForm on Medium.

’Til next time — remember you are loved by the One who created you in His image.
