They say that variety is the spice of life
But I’d rather live a more humble means
I don’t need drama, nor excessive rife
Just simpler days, in my ole blue jeans
Word of the Day – Humble

The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”. You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you. More info can be found in the link below.
Peering cautiously, into the maze
The wall, ahead, halts my quizzical gaze
A choice to make, which way to follow
Nothing to guide, the path is hollow
Shall I go left, or better to go right?
I must decide, and allay this fright
Of losing myself, inside this place
Yelling for help, would be a disgrace
I must show myself, I am able to cope
Find my way out, never giving up hope
No matter the path, I know I’ll survive
I just need to make out of here, alive
But first, I need to find my center
Before this circuitous maze, I enter
Tis then I can follow, this uncharted course
Head into the unknown, with no remorse
To make it through, no haste, nor hurry
And leave that pesky thing, called worry
At the beginning, where it all began
Without foresight, nor map, nor plan
And while these walls may confound
Finding my way, will be quite profound

She can feel them coming up behind her
Strong as ever, and faster than before
The same desire, to cross the finish line
Legs in motion, the sweat starts to pour
By the time she reaches the end of track
Her laces have easily loosened their grip
But, none back down, no, not in the least
Tight triumphs strengthen their fellowship

Filled, with intimate thoughts of you
My mind wanders, in the most delicious ways
I’m smitten, with all the things you do
Not just on Valentine’s, but each and every day!

(Heavy Breathing)
My dearest Padawan, I have something, just for you
The droids reminded me, to give you something blue
Oh yes, and something red, although, I prefer all black
The elevator’s calling us, let’s move in, toward the back
No one else will follow us, trust me, this is true
But should they get too close, they’re easy to subdue
We can be together, all alone, in this elevator
You can be my chosen one, and I can be your Vader
(Snickering laugh)
(Back to heavy breathing)
Take these flowers, please, they’re making me wheeze!
A little levity on this day of passion and love! 😉 This was my original poem for ~M’s challenge. Then I just made it silly lol ❤
