Friday Writings # 155...May Bite

tis your choice

to bite or not to bite

that is the question

whether it is nobler

to seek revenge or

walk away

 removing  that person

from one's life

blown  like a piece of fluff

from a sleeve 

ay there's the rub

where there's a Will

there's a way

What's Going On...FEAST

 

CINQUAINS

suppose

you're preparing

a feast for thanksgiving

happy thanksgiving to you all

enjoy

always

feast or famine

droughts and or flooding rains

no worries it's the wide brown land

for me

Tanka Tuesday 26th November

 

struggles and blessings

supply of silver linings

needed by us all

we need to hoard them when times

turn bleak and  dark storms prevail

FRIDAY WRITINGS #154...Poets and Story Tellers United

 SHADORMA

neglected

lonely old people

too many 

die alone

in this cruel society

our eternal shame

CINQUAIN

why not 

give them great care ?

it's not cost effective

they've reached their use by date so it's

sod off

Whats Going On....Say It With Flowers

 you always said it with flowers

your beautiful photographs

gracing our walls

you are still with me

but have left me as well

now but a mere shadow

of your former self

the cruelty of age

and its spear carriers

shows no mercy

TANKA TUESDAY

SHADORMA

 butcher bird

 aussie favourite

 beautiful

 sweet song bird

something to cling on to in

this sad troubled world

FRIDAY WRITINGS....POETS AND STORYTELLERS UNITED

while the world crumbles around us

the magnificence

that humanity is capable of creating

still shines through

if man

is made in the image of God

then this music and performance

is certainly a testament to that
