Somewhere in-between
The hello and goodbye
There lies a subtle hint
Heard, in an everlasting sigh
One that speaks to our hearts
In ways, unknown to others
The one that knows what lies ahead
When we meet again, as lovers

It started out quite innocently
A conversation they had over dinner
Nothing was said nicely, nor eloquently
And no one would come out the winner
Name calling commenced, round the table
It got uglier as time went on
Each one got their own special label
The lines in the sands, had been drawn
Back and forth, it went for hours
Until hunger won out, and they ate
The next day, the misses got flowers
The next day, was one day too late

I should really
be in bed
but sleep escapes
and I’m awake instead
Too many words
that need to flow
I remember when
they told me so
If you start writing verse
in every way
it’s all that you’ll do
from dusk til day
For it’s in the wee hours
of the night, I seize
as I let my fingers
stroke the keys
With a clacking noise
in the quiet night
the sound of poetry
at last, I write
Releasing words
of this, I vow
til morning wakes
tis my bedtime now
It’s hard to believe it’s the end of April and another #NaPoWriMo has come to an end. I’ve enjoyed writing a poem a day for 30 days. I hope you enjoyed reading them ❤

I thought April’s prompts were done
Then along comes Will Robinson
Can this get any stranger?
Oh wait, Danger! Danger!
Michelle sure has a weird sense of fun!
But I have to admit, I don’t mind
It’s kind of my way to unwind
I go to some faraway place
Where I can get “lost in space”
And be away from the day to day grind!

She wouldn’t listen when they tried to warn her
Drinking soda was no good for her waist
But she was addicted to sweet Nuka-Cola
She simply adored its taste
There was something about the flavor
The more she drank, the more she would crave
Never heeded the warning label
That sent her straight to an early grave
Right there, on the front of the bottle
Underneath the soft drink’s name
Excessive consumption unhealthy
Warning: choking hazard, it proclaimed
April Writing Prompt: Nuka-Cola Asphyxiola – Day 30/30
Normally, this would be the last poem for April’s writing prompts, but it seems Michelle sneaked in an extra day…so April has 31!!!
