Almost Art

It’s off the chart
A piece of objet d’art
Looks kind of smart
Add it to your cart
If you have a heart
And a complimentary tart
Will give you a jump-start
For no one can tear it apart
Because it’s almost a work of art

Painted with the finest ink
Added a little hue of pink
The colouring book of nature
Quite a spectacular feature
Across the evening sky

Don’t just stand there and stare
Enter, if you dare
We will not give you a scare

Electric

Bright, colourful, electric
In this home of eccentrics
Is it just a piece of technic
Or something quite poetic?

It’s just glass
See-through mass
Push real hard
And through it you will pass

Mundane Monday: Falsified Self-image

“I now find magic in the mundane. I’m also more creative – better able to look beyond the obvious and come up with new story angles” Deborah Norville

Falsified Self-image

The shadow reflected
Not what I expected
Feeling disconnected
Somehow misrepresented

It has to be rejected
And quickly corrected
My true self resurrected
This image perfected

Over the Railing

Over the railing and
Into the water
Retorted Harry Potter
As he dove underwater

Dark Side of the Odd 

There in the corner it stood
Like something from the tales of the odd
Or maybe, it was just misunderstood

Mundane Monday: Now you see me, Now you don’t

Posted in Mundane Monday

“I would much rather have a life filled with magic than one filled with the mundane.”
― Debbie Viguié

     

Now you see me, Now you don’t

Don’ t blink
Because,
In an eye’s wink
You see her,
Then you don’t
Not a haunt
Not a stalker
It’s just Granny
With her walker
