Tiny bare hands hold

Seedlings yearning to grow high

The fruit of the earth

The Apples of Wrath – #MayWriting – #poetry

A fiery apple, she quietly lures

Outside the town, nobody did notice

To her advantage, she uses a spell

This gypsy girl, mysterious poetess

Chanting rhymes and incantations

He falls for her, much to his chagrin

She knows exactly how to charm

But the fairy tale would never begin

Anger holds her tighter than love

He is doomed, in the aftermath

Never to see home, again, he is done

Easily bitten, by the apples of wrath

Hanging upside down, in a nearby tree

Is a cuckoo bird, and he’s on an eating spree

Gobbling down Rambutan, delightfully sweet

He can’t get enough, so he uses both feet

As well as his beak, to stuff them all in

When suddenly, above him, his tail does spin

He tries to be cool, but his wings start sprawling

Usually what happens, when the cuckoo’s falling

Putrid Plants and Inquisitive Ants – #poetry #SeptemberWriting

When the smell of putrid plants

Calls to those inquisitive ants

We wonder what it is they sense

Or is that they’re just so dense

As not to know the mold they taste

Is really only decayed waste

The humans left outside to rot

That time and weather just forgot

Or is that they’re really smart

And find this fruit, sweet and tart

To satisfy their cravings for

Oh! Food, for winter, they will store

I suppose it could be worse than this

They must find mold, their true bliss

Twisty tops of luscious cream

Sugared fruit, oh, how extreme!

If I keep eating this sweet confection

I’m going to need an intervention

Cause I sure like my cake, I do

C’mon, I’ll even share with you!

 

HAPPY SUNDAY EVERYONE!!!   ❤
