A Bench to Sit on (three)

I believe in training by rising gently up
and down from the bench”

Moving forward
I found one, made of wood
Maybe it wasn’t hard
Rather suitably good
Too soft for a fit!

Then I saw it
The bench, made of stone
When I tried to sit
I felt it to my bones
Too hard for a fit!

I was looking for
A bench to sit on
What I hoped to score
Something close to a lawn
To lay my tired self
On a softer shelf

Black Cat for Caturday (two)

“A black cat crossing your path:
Usually signifies,
that the animal is going somewhere”
Groucho Marx

Black Cat for Caturday

Sleepy eyes
Still a spy

In this house
Maybe a mouse?

‘Oh that louse
Will not escape
My scrape!
No, not this time
No, that would be
A big crime!’

Do not disturb
The sleeping cat
Or a big hurt
Is a matter of fact!

Black Cats for Caturday

On patrol,
Sneaking around
Like trolls
When night falls
On this eve of all hallows
Soon the beast swallows
Its prey
Oh, you can only pray
It
Won’t
Be
You!

Black Cat for Caturday

Alert, awake
Nothing would shake
The determination
Not leaving this station
For any reason
Except,
For the hunting season
After all,
Next night fall
Will be
Halloween

After the snow storm
The water’s edge has transformed
Into a picturesque tableau,
Oh, what a show!

Snowfall on a rainy day
So?
Today is a day, in January!
What more can I say!

Snow Mummies (TBT)

Posted in Throwback Thursday

“A lot of people like snow. I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water.”
Carl Reiner

Snow Mummies

Uncovered from the snow
In the dark night they glow
Small black stones for eyes
Only afraid of the sunrise
Melting their worst enemy
Cold weather the only remedy
Sitting pretty for now
Until the earth they will bow
