Tell me, dear human, why you did this to me
Didn’t you know, how embarrassed I’d be?

Dyed like an Easter egg, pink, purple and blue
I wonder how you’d feel, if I did this to you

People all gawking, snickering, as I go by
Right now, deep inside, I wish I could cry

But wait, what’s this, my picture, they’re taking
I’m a tie-dyed poodle, famous, in the making!

Never mind what I said about being embarrassed
I’ll be hopping the next flight, for my debut in Paris

Keeper of the Maze ~ #poetry

#poetry, daze, dorindaduclos.com, keeper, lost, maze, Night Owl Poetry, poems, save, soul, walls, writing

Darkened thoughts invade my mind

Seeking ground they cannot find

Circling round in a boundless daze

I am the keeper of this maze

Trapped between these walls of stone

No longer flesh, now merely bone

Left alone, never to be found

Lost forever on these grounds

Who shall come and save my soul…

Who shall come and make me whole…

He was an old softy, with a devilish old heart

Knew how to get the girls, right from the start

Romancing each one, was his kind of game

He never left any of them, feeling the same

Each night he’d romance, yet another pretty face

Then leave her behind, ‘cause he needed his space

Til this one little lady, cheeks red, as she blushed

Smiled, ever shyly, turning his heart into mush

Friday Fantasy ~ Conspire – #poetry of the #moon

Cast me a spell, that sets, like a fire

Flames in the darkness, my truest desire

Words that shadow, as the night closes in

Allow me to follow, when the spirits begin

Their incantations, to darken the light

The wakening of Luna, full and bright

Cast me a spell, my one true desire

The moon, my soul, to wickedly conspire

There he was, good ole guzzling Gary

Sat at the bar, with his pal Harry

The two knocked back a few

Then the bar stools they threw

Locked up, they became legendary
