Lights shine from ceilings

Casting a glow through the night

Just like paper stars

Dolly is a Belgium Draft horse, who makes her home at the Bergen County Zoo (Van Saun Park).  For more info on Dolly, click HERE

4th in the “Saturday Stars” photography series on my blog.

I will be taking weekends off from sharing poetry until further notice, so I decided to share some of my favorite photos.  I hope you enjoy them.  Of course, I’ll still be doing my #DailyHaikuChallenge/September Writing.  🙂

Friday Fantasy ~ Winged Flight – #poetry #fairies

Tags

The fantasy does come alive

As fairy wings about do fly

Dance throughout the midnight air

Around the forest with no care

Guided by the pale moon light

Frolicking merrily, so sweet a sight

I watch from yonder meadow tree

Fascinating beauties, roaming free

Who glide upon the winds of night

Enchanting me with winged flight

Fading flora waits

With the last days of summer

Holding out for fall

Looming Chaos ~ #poetry of a #hurricane #Irma #SeptemberWriting

Tags

She struck with a fervor, like a derailed train

Took with her, everything, all she could claim

Lashed out at those, for staying behind

Wondering if they had all lost their mind

Warnings aplenty, where this girl would land

Seems she had it quite carefully planned

Landfall would only cause her to stall

So she stayed upon water, embracing the wall

Of funnel spouts spewing, and wind shears galore

Something so ominous, what was in store?!

Slowly she churned, growing closer and then

Slamming into the mainland, again and again

Unleashing her peril, with all of her might

Keeping everyone fearful, throughout most the night

Until all was calm, not a sound could be heard

Caught in the eye of the storm, where chaos is stirred
