Her colors blazed, about the sky
And twinkling stars, stood on standby

They knew better than to eclipse her light
Beaming sheer radiance, in their sight

Purples and blues, adorned her face
Clouds of orange, added to her grace

The lights of the night, beheld her, proud
A nebula, Heaven’s most beautiful cloud

Earth becomes hopeful

When blades of green grass stand tall

For a regal spring

Ginger hair, dressed in black

Darkness, drawn to light

She stands in silence, gazing

At the rays, that grace the night

Chancing they are moonbeams

She ventures, closer still

The night air, warm as summer

Yet, she could feel its chill

She waits, so impatiently

For a sign, to tell her why

The sunlight replaces darkness

She fears, the moon has lost the sky

Bad Habits ~ #poetry #AprilWriting

#AprilWriting, #poetry, #writingprompt, bad habits, bubble gum, chewing tobacco, dorindaduclos.com, Night Owl Poetry, poems, tobacco


I’ll never understand it
Why men think it’s profound

To stuff their mouths with tobacco
Then spit it out, onto the ground

They chew away on a substance
Tucked neatly in their cheek

I don’t think I could kiss them
Their chances, are rather bleak

Why can’t they find a habit
That the ladies like as well

Like chewing bubble gum instead
I’d find that rather swell

So guys, please forget the chew
It’s so uncouth, and unrefined

Replace it with something minty
This, we’ll surely never mind
