There was a young woman named Bessie

Whose habits were often quite messy

No matter what she ate

From the table or plate

Most wound up all over her dressy

Let no one’s dreams, drown in despair

We have the ability, to flood the world

With visions, we have built and shared

So freedom’s flag, can remain unfurled

Hidden beneath the waterfalls, pooling softly into streams; the tiniest little creatures, from deep below, it seems. They ride upon the ripples, waves that have no crest; gathering around the moss, tis where they make their nest. Basking in the light of day, blending with the green; guarding precious babies, they remain a sight unseen. There is no way to find them, only nature shows its face; the land is full of sweet delight, yet, cloaked in ethereal grace. A peacefulness has grown here, each shrub and tree provides; and the rocks are simply as they are, a path to the other side. Carefully step across them, lest you ruffle this sacred stream; do not splash too garishly, or you’ll disrupt my Earthly dream.

An Un-Nervy Knight – #NovemberWriting #poetry

Imagine his surprise
When he rode onto the land
Encountering the town folk
Sitting in the stands

They looked nothing like he envisioned
He wasn’t sure what to make of the scene
Even his horse couldn’t bear to look
Cantering, back and forth, and between

Raising his voice to the village
He needed to show his nerve
For never a knight should ever
Be one without any verve

The town folk cheered him on
Hoping to see him in battle
But this brave knight just couldn’t
His nerves had started to rattle

And so ends the tale of Sir Gulpin
Whose persona did not shine
In fact, the only thing he did, was
Remain on his steed and whine

The Crash ~ #poetry #RDP

The table, once filled with abundance

Is now empty, things gone, in a flash

Stuffed and sated, we must take a nap

Caused by that notorious turkey crash
