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

Yellow Umbrellas – #poetry #SeptemberWriting

Packed and corded, yellow umbrellas stand tall

No longer unfurled, summer’s welcomed the fall

Lunch tables now empty, no suntan to get

The ocean’s still calling, but I’m not getting wet

It’s much too chilly to hang out, on the beach

The warmer days are gone, they’re all out of reach

And the breeze off the water, is icy and cold

How dare you, dear autumn, must you be so bold?

No boats on the water, no seagulls flying high

Down at the shore, I watched summer flying by

Drops of water fall

Echoing sweet vibrations

Lost in a rainstorm

Memories, you vow to keep forever

Wilting, dying, but leave you, never

Withered roses, from a love so true

Keeping them close to your heart, so blue

Try as you might, you cannot forget

A time in your life, you’ll never regret

Though dried up petals are all that remain

The sweetness of youth, you’ll always retain

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!!!   ❤
