The girls all gathered for a rare, special treat
Touted as something that couldn’t be beat
Each one brought, her husband or mate
Some of them even brought their last date

Standing in a cornfield, far away from town
The men were getting antsy, starting to frown
They didn’t understand, why they were there
The women kept chattering, they didn’t care

When the men found out, what a surprise!
There was a rocket ship, in front of their eyes
The women urged them, to climb on board
Knowing pretty soon, they’d get their reward

The rocket doors closed, there was no escape
They had tricked the men, who stood, agape
The thrusters fired the ship, clear off the ground
The laughter from the ladies, did clearly abound

Waving goodbye, to those left standing on land
You have to wonder, who had the upper hand…

My words might seem a bit incoherent these days

I even thought I should abandon them, with a toss

Then I realized they’re quite hither to my very ways

Of making an effort, to getting my point across

 

Word of the Day – Incoherent

The Kissing Curse – #poetry – #MarchWriting

Petals fell like snowflakes

On this, the first of spring

Each time they would smooch

Weather did a strange thing

At times, it was like summer

Then, twas autumn’s leaves

Lastly, winter, with its cold

Left icicles on the eaves

No matter where they kissed

Things would only get worse

It’s when they finally realized

They were under a kissing curse

Others told them to knock it off

They couldn’t stand the change

But, apparently this whole thing

Had been carefully prearranged

 

Happy Spring/Autumn Everyone! Enjoy your day!  ❤

Why Can’t We be Friends? ~ #poetry #WOTD #FOWC #DWP

If we focus on something we believe is wrong

We besmirch others, for their rightful opinions

Wouldn’t it be grand if we could all get along?

Perhaps, blot out the noise, from other minions

 

Word of the Day – Focus
FOWC with Fandango – Blot
