Two on Tuesdays – Pyrates
Two partyin’ Pyrates
dressed
In lace and leather
Not just ship mates
pressed
to work together
More like fun dates
blessed
with a tickling feather.
Flash 55 – Autumn
translucent fronds of red and gold dance
amongst the impish lights of Sol, inspired
by crisp blue skies, energetic breezes
caressing crystalline morning dew
with keen glitter blinding in the glorious
joy of fractal hues and animated beacons
blazing in echoes of nature’s praise,
melodic hymns of exaltation, gratitude
rising with the dawning sun…
Hallelujah!

Tutu Tuesday
There once was a girl in a tutu,
Not surprisingly her name was Lulu.
She dressed for the dance,
A wink and a glance,
Obviously drunk on a Blue Woo.
Flash 55 – Happy Birthday to Me!
Your calendar needs a mark
On this most auspicious day
For this weekly lark
That you have come to play
Find here my little ditty
That counts words of fifty five
But no need to give me pity
For I am still kicking and alive
Ready to have some fun
Today makes me fifty one
(Yes, I cheated on the grammar to get my word [...]
Flash 55 – Nicholas
We are in new states of bliss
Since we were given Nicholas.
As you can see below, he’s a real cutie
with each foot covered in a Harley bootie.
Being a mini gentleman pyrate
(Yes, we just can not deny it)
He has boarded and stolen our hearts
Even though he mostly sleeps and farts.

A Bad Poem as Recap
RECAP
I went not so far away,
But intended to laugh all day.
I did more than that
Like a loony bat
And here’s the instant replay:
We traveled to the Jersey pines
To hear the Devil’s whines.
Although I was never connected
My brain wasn’t adversely affected.
I sipped on lemon cocktails
Forgetting about my emails.
Watching the stars in the night
I didn’t think of either [...]
Flash 55 – Camping
Hi, ho, hi, ho a camping we will go.
The week is done,
It is time for fun
and we will take it nice and slow.
Hi, ho, hi, ho the campfire’s all a glow.
Hot dog in a bun,
no need for a beer run
it is all ice cold and ready to flow.

A Harry Situation
There once was a guy named Harry
who bordered on strange and scary
devilish and trim
the girls loved him
but he loved a bloke named Larry.
Oh, No! Not More Poetry.
A couple of weeks ago, I began a study of poetry, beginning with Abstract Poetry. I wrote a couple of poems which did not make me happy.
Using words for their sounds and images instead of their meanings with open ended thoughts and situations, seems to be the point of abstract poems. Dame Edith Sitwell, who [...]
Summertime Tease
Blue peeked out at me today
A shy, sapphire, coquette
Hidden behind soft gauze.
Blue unveiled by a breeze,
My eyes enticed upward
Toward the coy siren.
Blue danced out of memory
Winked and beckoned me
To seek my ease.
