Reaching down, she scooped up a handful of the deep dark soil
Old smells of peat and fertilizer mingled with aromas of earth and moisture
Overhead, the sun poured light down, saturating the field

Vector (an acrostic poem)
Velocity was too high and from the wrong direction for the two spacecraft to dock.

Considering the impulse they were about to experience, he shouted, “Brace yourselves!”

Rockets fired and the spacecraft slowed in the gravitational field it floated in.
Spell (an acrostic poem)
So do you believe in the magic that surrounds you?
Pushing the fantastical into the factual
Enabling imagination to define reality
Letting wonder bloom in the field of drab predictability
Let’s drink deep of this fever dream and cast our fancy into the world
Orbit (an acrostic poem)
Oscillating around her, trapped in her emotional gravitational field
Rotating in and out of her sunny disposition
Bob felt like their relationship was becoming too predictable

Giving Bob a clear idea of who is real competition was
Moving diagonally, he finally found his home
Enabling him to kick it to the next level
