Hold Me Now _ Challenge # 170

 


they made a life

a blursday life

flitting

here and there

those who wander are not always lost 


he grew old

she grew up

the sadness began

reality collided with dreams

 

hold me now

warm my heart

stay with me


hold me now

time is short

stay with me

until the end

Home

 

the colours of home

nature's christmas palette

a parrot's delight

 



Troiku


the colours of home

nanas rosy apple cheeks and

rimless spectacles


nature's christmas palette

yellow wattles red gum flowers

raspberries and pink peppercorns


a parrots delight

gorging on unpicked olives

an expensive treat

Colours Of Life Carpe Diem # 1839

 i thought

 you had a heart

i was wrong ( again)

 

you cannot dim

 the colours of my life

with your cruelty

 

i will  spend christmas

on a deserted beach and

 drink champagne with the seagulls

Thanksgiving

                                 and little piggies do fly
 


 

 thanksgiving 

a celebration of the one way trip

the economically driven pilgrim fathers

had  more important things  than jesus

on their minds

Madaari - The Extraordinary Journey Of The Fakir | Dhanush | Vishal D & ...

 

a mover and shaker 

bollywood's red hot dancer

fires up the spirit


if he gave lessons

i would sell my furniture

to pay for them

 

if i fell backwards

into his arms on the dance floor

would he catch me 


i will never know

Beautiful, YOU Are, by Magic Love Crow

“You are imperfect, permanently and inevitably flawed. And you are beautiful.”
~ Amy Bloom ~

 

 

stacy paints  some lovely pics

with black crows featuring quite a bit

she does a bit of this and that

winning prizes for her way out hats


reams of alfoil line her shelves

it's rumoured that she has 12 elves

she loans them out on christmas night

to santa for his long haul flight

 Shadorma


far too cold

no one in today

been a year 

already

who knows what summer will bring

life's changed forever

 

Sunday Muse # 133

 

au clair de la lune

the candle light will soon

fizzle out quietly

unnoticed

never there

never remembered
