Cockamamie Conclusions ~ #poetry #JuneWriting

Another month of prompts are done

At last, I’ll get to see the sun

See, M had me hunkered down in here

My family thought I disappeared

Except for the constant keyboard clacking

That got to be quite nerve-racking!

But I never gave up, no sir, not me

The challenge was issued, twas M’s decree

So I sat there for hours, typing away

The sun came and went, I think yesterday

That makes this the very last day of June

The final prompt, I’m over the moon!

Because pounding my head, gave me a contusion

Thank God, this is my cockamamie conclusion

 

Author’s note: June was a blast!  I cannot wait for M’s July writing prompts.  I absolutely love them!

Friday Fantasy ~ Child of Fire – #dragons #poetry

Tags

Child of fire
Change has come
As you lie upon your bed
Embers glow
As wings unfold
And human skin is shed

Alluring in its mystery
The tales of fire’s truth
Intoxicating spirit
It claims a young girl’s youth

Child of fire
Sleep upon
Your bed now made of flame
A fiery heart
The dragon’s call
Whispering your name

A Bodacious Barnacle ~ #poetry #JuneWriting

Tags

She stuck to his side, like a barnacle at sea

Attracted to him, but a bit too smutty

He ignored her advances, brushed off moves

Letting her know, he would never approve

Of the way she clung, to his macho physique

Loving the way, he exuded mystique

But he wanted nothing, to do with her

Scrapping away, like a mad saboteur

Finally, he was able to release from her grip

A bodacious barnacle, had no place on his ship

#TBT ~ Inquietude – #poetry

It’s 3AM and I’m still awake

I walk to the window and pull back the drape

And stare at a moonless starlit sky

And wonder aloud, why is it I

Cannot find the sleep I so desperately crave

These thoughts overtake me, to a point where I cave

And slink back to my desk like a cat on the prowl

After all, it is why I am called the Night Owl
