  • This side of me Day(24) Napowrimo

    April 24th, 2015

    Up this morning feeling so good & happy

    Thinking happy thoughts

    Did a happy dance

    Mixed in a little, raw sugar and Whip cream

    Played all my happy records

    Minded my own happy-bidness!

    Sneezed a happy sneeze

    Put on my best Springy-

    Maxi-dress

    Walked off my happy porch

    And…

    Lawd have Mercy!

    A flat

    Tire!

    This is a play on a Poem by Jackie Earley “One Thousand Nine-Hundred & sixty-Eight Winters” It’s a favorite poem of mine.

    Our prompt today (optional, as always), will hopefully provide you with a bit of Friday fun. Today, I challenge you to write a parody or satire based on a famous poem. It can be long or short, rhymed or not. But take a favorite (or unfavorite) poem of the past, and see if you can’t re-write it on humorous, mocking, or sharp-witted lines. You can use your poem to make fun of the original (in the vein of a parody), or turn the form and manner of the original into a vehicle for making points about something else (more of a satire – though the dividing lines get rather confused and thin at times).

  • Void Day (22) Happy Earth Day Napowrimo

    April 22nd, 2015

    If I look for yesterday, I won’t ever find him.

    Certainly not while the sun has gathered her children.

    If I thought about tomorrow,

    I’d be paralysed  looking out my rearview.

    I thought about traveling. I’d go to Venus, I’m not sure why.

    Rambling on, I must.

    Mother, she has a way that moves me .

    Just how do evergreens stay so true?

    Just how are the flurries flying in April?

    I am fond of the animals that eat their skin course,

    I never want to meet them.

    This Poem makes no sense

    but it feels good to vent.

    I had some issues with my blog site So you won’t find day 21 for Napowrimo, I have changed themes still trying to find a theme that works for me(free is good) Nevertheless all is well. Hey things happen. I’ve gotta make the best of it and laugh real hard… Feeling Alive ,happiness is all…Much love to all the writers/Poets/ and bloggers in WordPress…

    Reboot me-back to happy

    where sunshine grows on trees

    thats where I wanna be…

  • Lightning Bugs (Day2) Napowrimo

    April 2nd, 2015

    Dangerously happy,

    flying with fireflies

    bugs  And fiery-winds,

    Soaring above,Sun’s mindful speed

    Beyond thee anchored

    wine stained doors

    pass that “Great Abyss”

    If ever I could hold one prickly round star

    but for a moment,

    touch a holy-thing.

  • Be-Easy

    March 13th, 2015

    Sometimes, I make life so complicated. Following the stream, makes me grow. Instead of banging my head against the river- bed. I am learning, just be-easy. It’s freaking-that simple, be-easy. Life is full of fun -surprises, and who doesn’t want to have fun!

    When I look around and see, warm sunshine, green grass and the mud that makes little children dirty. I realize I’m okay, right here. This is the path that brings me laughter, that oh-ey gooey feelings, drizzling with chocolate and butterscotch ice cream. Okay,  back to that thing happening in my life. I’m  on “30 days of thankfulness” Just being easy with me and the rest will come.

    No, I’m not always happy, I slip off into the why’s of life. Why did I leave the house with my house-shoes? Why are the kids so loud? Why is there a little flying nat, annoying the crap out of me? WHy , Why Why?

    So these 30 days are stretching me, off my traditional rubber-band, paddling up stream.(i.e. fighting the waters like the dog that can’t swim)

    I am learning to say “all is well ( or to hell with it -which ever works !).”

  • STILL HERE -Langston Hughes

    March 6th, 2015
    STILL HERE BY Langston Hughes- 1902-1967

    I been scared and battered.
    My hopes the wind done scattered.
    Snow has friz me,
    Sun has baked me,

    Looks like between ’em they done
    Tried to make me

    Stop laughin’, stop lovin’, stop livin’–
    But I don’t care!
    I’m still here!

    Langston Hughes
