“Ready for my Close-up”

Getting closer and closer
A little more closer
Almost close enough
For an object to touch
But wait, time to hesitate
The cactus with mighty thorns
May your fingers scorn
Before you loose
Better choose
The creamy strawberries
With their pals blueberries
A tasty treat
Without any meat
Some eye candy to complete
With a red amaryllis ever so sweet

Mistrust is such an Ugly Word in TBT

trust

Mistrust is such an Ugly Word

My poor little mistrusting thing
Think ,what joy a friend may bring
Together sharing your precious blings
Laughing when playing in the swing

Trust is a difficult thing
You say quicker than the clock could ding
I am afraid of the sting
Even if it means alone I would sing

Your world may not always be on a string
And you may not always be the king
But if you want that bell to ring
Spread out far your wings
And in the chorus you may sing

“Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs” Susan Sontag

Mallorca

Palma Nova
The sweetest Rosa
Of the island Mallorca

Welcomes
The weary traveler
A world’s passenger

Come
And take a load off
Forget all that scoff
Enjoy the sunny beach
Watch the waves breach

Colourful and vibrant
Like a water hydrant
The little village by the sea
No better place to be

“To bring the sublime into the mundane is the greatest challenge there is.”
Hazrat Inayat Khan

I’ll follow if You lead

Where ever you’ll go
I will follow
You are my human
I am your dog-man
I don’t care if you wear pink
Even though others say it stinks
So let’s end this in a rhyme
And I will ‘go’ on the chime

“A seat fit for a Queen”

Yellow Seat 

In the bright yellow seat
A guaranteed smile as a treat
When you sit down
You will find an upside frown
Appearing on your face

“Five cats and a woman. That is all I need in life” Alejandro Jodorowsky

Caturday

Cats of a foreign land
Sitting on a lava strand
Too hot to fish
Too hot for a stroll
Guess, the best bet is
To hang around the bowl
On this lazy sunny day
Nothing else to do but lay

Moon, Moon, where art thou Moon?

Moon, moon
Where art thou moon?
Come out from your hiding
On the nightly path guiding
Before off the trail
I go slipping and sliding

Stuck Between a Poem and a Hard Place (TBT)

“Breathe-in experience, breathe-out poetry” Muriel Rukeyser

Stuck Between a Poem and a Hard Place

I am a poet
But did not know it
Now I am writing
Lyrics without biting
The bullets
My mind to the fullest
Hammering the keyboard
Not a big chore
No, not anymore

Ever since I started
I cannot be parted
From the blank page
That clean slate
Words pouring
My heart roaring
I feel elevated
Totally animated
Full of excitement

I am completely and utterly
Lost in Poetry

A poem a day keeps the Shrink away!

“When travelling, travel in style” Gun Roswell

Tallinn, Estonia 

7-a

For a renaissance fair
You need proper attire to wear
Don’t get in a despair
If you cannot fix your hair
Just put on a red dress
And you will be quite the success
Without too much stress!
