Change Happens

now what's next?

Remember getting up
Early to head into work?
Today,
I don't have to - anymore.
Realizing that the "rat race" has
Ended - for me.
Meaningful transition;
Every day a blessing to come.
Never again will I be a slave
To an alarm clock.

NEW PROMPT DUE Jan 26, 2023 Writer's Cramp:

In Tarot the number 21 is related to the "The World" card. One of the many meanings of this card is that it represents an ending to a cycle of life, a pause in life before the next big cycle.

Write your STORY or POEM about someone who is experiencing the end of one cycle of life just before the next cycle begins. It could be going from single to married (or married to divorced); graduation; changing jobs; moving; retirement, etc. Be creative, and you must use Inspirational as one of your genres.

Make sure you include your word count for stories (1000 words or less) or a line count for poems (40 lines or less) IN your forum post with the b-item link to your entry in order to be a qualified entry.
