They must have sneaked up on me

When I wasn’t paying attention

And now I’m wearing this silly dress

You can understand my apprehension

I know that Easter’s coming soon

But I still feel rather funny

You see, it doesn’t make much sense

To dress a dragon as a bunny!

I sat upon the mountain top
Gazing down on the earth below
Basking in all the wonders of life
With the sun in the sky, aglow

A gentle breeze blew slowly past
Like the flutter of a butterfly’s wings
Turning my face toward its gentle caress
I could hear the woodlands sing

Their song, the sound of angel harps
Each chord, a gossamer string
Melodies fly on the wisp of a cloud
With the beauty of all God’s things

Frantic ~ #poetry of #life

Life, can throw you a million curves

You quickly become so distraught

Thinking it’s more, than you deserve

Your mind, becomes overwrought

No need to be frantic, just let it be

Duck, when it throws a curve ball

Things will get better, eventually

Be patient, it’s your life, after all

Moaning Myrtle ~ #poetry #MarchWriting

Myrtle, it seems, was a terrible moaner

Which led to her becoming quite the loner

Miserable, she was, while waiting for him

Ventured out, on a lark, to satisfy a whim

Took a tour of the city, in a big fancy car

Made her name as she danced in every bar

The patrons made sure, to invite her back again

She made them promise, to be gentlemen

Even though they once caused dear Myrtle to frown

She now makes them smile, she’s the toast of the town

Beneath the Earth ~ #poetry #MarchWriting

Hidden beneath the earth
In a grotto, the tide rolls in
Is this place I can call my very own
Where tranquil waters caress my skin

I watch the sunlight streaming
From the darkness of my cave
Reflections float around me
Yet, I am not afraid

Though peaceful ripples signal
The tide is about to change
I will not leave this treasure
For everywhere else is strange

Here is where I feel at home
This is where I wish to stay
Quietly listening, to the sounds
Of the water, from the bay
