Forget me not
*Bois d’ arc aka Lions Mane, A poetic conversation, 2024.
The Bra
We took a little trip. To the next town over. Just a little zip. ~ Do a little shopping. Some business hopping. ~ Birthday present and chicken wings on the menu. A girls evening ensued. ~ Mission accomplished. Homeward bound. We didn’t need a GPS or a blood hound. ~ On the side of theContinue reading “The Bra”
Mouse vs key
Why will my curser not move? I have so much work to do. ~ Where is my car key? I just want to leave. ~ How will I get all this work done? My cursor still won’t move. ~ What is happening here? I can’t make any headway. ~ When will that clock read 5?Continue reading “Mouse vs key”
Emotions
A study published in the Proceedings of National Academy of Sciences suggests that there are as many as 27 different categories of emotions. Robert Plutchik believed that humans can experience over 34,000 unique emotions but, ordinarily, they experience eight primary emotions. I dislike them all: unobtainable, unachievable, unsustainable, some undesirable. Wars have been fought. StatuesContinue reading “Emotions”
A song
I had a dream about you the other night. Nothing obscene. Nothing to cause a fright. ~ In my dream, I got to see you play. At a local festival. It was day. ~ You had no idea I was around. Singing and playing, happiness you had found. ~ A little lady about 85, pattedContinue reading “A song”
Eat or breathe
Cleaning the yard can be quite hard. ~ A lovely day no where close to May. ~ Down tree limbs a brush pile laden to the brim. ~ Saw’em up and burn’em in a pit; clean that yard. Have a pop and sit. ~ Enjoy being outside. Watch the sun; across the sky, ride. ~Continue reading “Eat or breathe”
Talk about
My world is calm and peaceful this morning. Last of winters snow covers the ground. Nothing is making a sound. ~ For a moment, sit, embrace the cold. Listen for natures stories untold. ~ “Still dreaming of things never meant to be?” With a half smile, sweet reply, ‘still dreaming of that pie in theContinue reading “Talk about”
Bittersweet
Bittersweet, success from the start. Success drives the mind, body and heart. ~ Success for a better life. Life without strife. ~ Success to share. Share with those treasured ones who care. ~ Bittersweet, success when you’ve made it to the top. Only to find those you thought cared, stopped. *A poetic conversation 2024
The hunter; part 2
This was their sympathy? Placing me in the night sky for eternity? ~ Canis Major and Canis Minor my only companions. Feelings akin to abandon. ~ Denied my Merope, not from above. Blinded for my love. ~ Accused, Artemis for trying to rape her. Hunters we were. ~ Apollo’s jealousy over Artemis’, What a fuss?Continue reading “The hunter; part 2”
