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!

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

I scull these endless miles, no sleep

To hide the pain that’s hidden deep

With every breath inhaled, I ache

And wonder how much more I’ll take

Before, at last, my final bow

Will release my soul, which cries, but now

I will forge my way, to alleviate this mood

Lest I spend my life, in a constant brood

For this pain doesn’t have control over me

I am the victor, I will set myself free

Row across the river, with courage and fortitude

Where adversity will never, again, intrude

Dancing on air, no ground for their feet

The music is silent, hearing only the beat

Of two hearts, together, perfect symmetry

Afloat on the wind, their minds, fancy free

Bodies in motion, no matter the space

No need for frilly, they are elegant grace

Flying high, still, they’ve new heights to discover

Their movements in sync, each one, the other

 

Author’s note: I chose to write the opposite (antonym) of Michelle’s prompt.

Remember the magic, once held in your hand
Cast out to the waters, like fine grains of sand
Washed away in the mist, headed out to the sea
Mystical feelings that aren’t meant to be

Left on the rocks, all alone, with the wind
That caresses your hair, swirls, then rescinds
Like the love you once felt, deep in your heart
That spell has been broken, and it tears you apart

Leaving you to search for the answers, anew
Praying toward the light, in the sky, above you
Seeking, and yet, there is nothing to find
You wonder why life, must be so unkind

Still, you remain, under a spell, which you cast
Forgetting the others, from your quite human past
In agony, you struggle, as part woman, part fish
To remember the magic, tis your one final wish
