Colleen Chesbro’s Theme Prompt for this month is The Day After.’
Here is my response in etheree
As
It dawns
Sunshine bright
The day after
You’re filled with promise
New beginnings, fresh starts
Aware of your inner strength
So many opportunities
Such are the gifts of the day after
Humbly you embrace with a grateful heart

This week’s challenge from Colleen Chesebro, is a Poet’s Choice. I chose the words: SEEK & ELUSIVE
Just seeing someone
Trying too hard to be liked
Can be confusing
The very thing they’re seeking
Grows ever more elusive

Oh
To be
A turkey
Thanksgiving day
Dinner focal point
Your fragrance fills the air
They’re fighting for your hot legs
And wishing on your very bones
They break out the very best china
For your glorious final resting place

To control
Serpent tendencies
I sit here
Play music
To hypnotize the wicked
Risking my own life

She dropped to the ground
Hence, the opportunity
For him to notice
