This Stella’s Vault addition is a little different. I am developing my poetry writing skills and wanted to share them with you. Below is a poem I’ve recently written that has yet to be published anywhere else, so I hope you enjoy it!

Photo OPs by Stella Williams

A gently placed hand on my shoulder

Do you mind just moving over?

A smile that lights up the face

But in the eyes you see something is out of place

Cut the ribbon

Hold the check

Pass the champagne

I'm so sorry what was your name?

A three person team

Months of work behind the scenes

A moment in time

Tainted

Celebration turned to aggravation

Recognition but all the disrespect

Are you okay?

Are we okay?

Simple questions

Suspect timing

Simmering tension

Just Stop

A place and a time

Neither is right

A set up

Simply fed up

No room for grace

The backdrop is in place

Game changer?

Like the roll of a die

It's facetime
