Ragged (Ragtag Daily Prompt)

Inspired by and written for the Ragtag Daily Prompt, my thanks to Dr Kottaway

RDP Sunday: ragged

Form: Deplorable Sonnet

Those early days after it all came out
And everything seemed surrounded by doubt
And I had no voice left with which to shout
My old jeans still feel like my closest friend

Once darkest blue now they’re faded and pale
I recall when I bought them in a sale
And they have been there with me without fail
My old jeans still feel like my closest friend

Now in my wardrobe, they are hung with pride
For being there throughout, right by my side

I know frayed edges have seen better days
Faded and frayed like me in many ways
Getting old with memories in a haze
My old jeans still feel like my closest friend

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an ongoing project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever-growing love of poetry.
