Mutual Admiration

Squirrels wait each day

When she comes out of her house

They know what’s coming

They need the nuts she gives them

She enjoys being needed

Purple Presents

Periwinkled brightly

Mauve, a bit more reserved

While plum was well preserved

Lavender crew

Use a Big Stick

In response to this week’s #tankatuesday challenge from the blog of Colleen Chesebro. THEME POETRY using the prompt of FIRE & WATER!

Stoke the kettle fire

Bring water to a boil

Add lye, removes the soil

From dirty clothes

And Unicorns

The box read, colored chalk

Her mind saw bright blue skies

Sunflowers with black eyes

Red ladybugs

Orange and pink tulips

Big brown dogs, small white cats

Birthday cakes, party hats

On grey sidewalks

Haiku 10/12/21

Soft tangerine tint

The sky of the ebbing day

Fades into night’s gloom
