What exactly did you bring me, dear?

There is a gent afloat in my beer

He keeps rowing around

Oh, the noise, quite profound

Making bubbles come out from the rear

 

Said the waiter, please give me a few

Let me find out what I need to do

He came back with a smile

Though he took quite awhile

Said, he comes with the glass, who knew!

Colors, of the rainbow, me
Open wounds, I let you see
Disguised as happy, tis my plight
Ever changing, with the light
Red, the anger, sees my fear
Addresses everything, unclear
Indigo shades, have me crazed
Never ending, obsidian days
Blue, the mood, my heart displays
Orange, deep, my mind transcends
When my emotions arc, a rainbow bends

Black as Night ~ #darkpoetry

Invisible light, doth never shines
Darkness, from my window, pines

Call to me, I’ll venture far
Away, from every shining star

Caress me with your ebony skies
Blackened, let the spirits rise

Take this earthly pound of flesh
Into the dead of night, refresh

My demons, let them now escape
Into the shadows, we reshape

The visions of the humans, dreams
Replace them all, with mortal screams

Take them, slowly, through the gate
Fear not, mere mortals, do not hate

The pitch that pries you from the light
Take comfort, in the blackest night

For it summons you, with adjuration
To follow, into, eternal damnation

Dazzling Doohickeys ~ #JuneWriting #poetry

Sadie dazzled the world, but couldn’t recall

Exactly with what, though the crowds, she’d enthrall

Some kind of doohickey, she would make spin

One by one, they would twirl, from her neck to her shin

Sparkling metal that went around and around

Never did she ever drop one, on the ground

There was only one problem with her great skill

When someone would ask what she did, oh the chill

That ran through her body, she’d feel her face blush

She couldn’t remember, so she’d leave in a rush

Til one day she tripped, hit her head, nincompoop!

Twas then she recalled, her beloved hula hoop

Whirling and twirling, so happy to remember

She continued to shake, from July til September

The others would watch in awe, then with a smile

Sadie tossed her hoops, and went out in style
