  • Have the words “Ring In” somewhere in your work

Everybody, Ring In

Ring in New Years

Celebrate all 

No need for tears

Enough did fall.

Ring in for change

Into a groove

Lives rearrange 

When we all move.

Ring in for life

Being alive

Cast away strife

For this we strive.

Ring in for fun

With all our work

For everyone

We’re all just done.

Ring in for toasts

Countdowns soon start  

No need for boasts

Just open hearts…

Your challenge for the week

  • It was time

Time to Go

It was time to go

Way past time to go

My heart told me so 

It had teetered to and fro

But her actions did show 

That I didn’t matter long ago 

My intuition let me know 

My inclination no longer slow

To continued manipulation I said “no”

It was time for me to grow

Take away her control

So I did go…

Didn’t look hard 

In that regard.

And they you were

And now I’m sure.

That I am blessed

And less depressed.

So I contend 

You’re a great friend.

Very aware 

Full of such care.

Creative too 

In all you do.

Syllable lines

Just might confine.

Challenge is more

Limiting four.

But I just might

Finish tonight.

Feeling so bright

These words, are right.

To my delight,

Adieu, Goodnight…

Your Prompt for the week

  • What if…

What If I Were A Fish?

If I were a fish

I’d not to be in a dish.

It’s all for not 

If I get caught.

Hung from a long stringer 

Until I go through the wringer.

Treble hooks and power-bait

Ways to trick me, early or late.

Be it a bigger fish or small 

A similar ending meets us all.

For when I’m caught, it’s no lie 

That I’m headed for the big pond in the sky. 

But in the end don’t sour the mood 

As I’d likely end up as yummy food.

Your Prompt for the week

  • Suddenly everything became blurry and dark…

Foresty Park

I made my way through the foresty park 

Suddenly everything became blurry and dark.

The trees blew left and then to the right 

In the prevailing winds throughout the night.

A musty smell filled the air 

The promise of rain so I must prepare 

I zip up my coat and fastening  the cowl 

Greeted by the hoot of a nearby owl.

I stumbled through brashes and thickets 

To the continuing chorus of male crickets. 

Moving on I’m feeling very weary 

The rapid  darkness feels quite eerie.

Rustling leaves in an all directions 

The cooling breeze offers little protection

Occasional flashes start to appear

With distant rumbles perk my ears.

Leaving soon is my greatest bet 

Unless I desire to get wet.

I figure out my bearings and find my way 

Back to its entrance I saw earlier that day.

I gather myself like a old bound tome 

Then I make my way back beyond the entrance towards home…

Why my right arm is so short…
