The Sunday Whirl...Wordle # 738


spin the bottle layered petticoats
frilly frocks and teenage parties
have no resonance with her
and no lingering memories for her


she was always on the fringe
never made the fit
swimming was more her trip
her time to be alone and reflect
images of crashing waves spilling on to the sand
remain with her

THE SUNDAY WHIRL

 The Sunday Whirl




lingering human oddly felt sense sharp full  joy point place instead sit

she oddlly had a sense full of joy
sitting at home instead of socialising
no longer felt a need for sharp human interaction
no lingering desire for excitement
the whole point was a to be in a place of peace
with her cats books music and poems

La gloire de mon père (feat. Orchestre Philharmonique de Paris).....WHATS GOING ON .....TWILIGHT

candles
kisses
dragees
lace and perfume
gifts under the tree
sparklers
magic

thoughts of
christmases
a long time ago
sweet memories merging
into the twilight of
my life

MLMM MONDAY WORDLE # 456

 


 pretty look tinsel fairy reception huge residents joyful step  wobble content swipe

she looked pretty
a  joyful fairy in tinsel
a huge success with the residents
who had  all attended the reception
she was content for him to partner her
doing wobble steps  on the dance floor
'a bit worse for wear '
someone swiped in the crowd
love will do that to you

Christmas Camper Van

WHATS GOING ON....SILENCE


BUTTERFLY CINQUAIN

silence
in the wee hours
a carer's luxury
a quiet time to write poetry
me time
a chance to rest up a little
christmas shows on tv
carols and hymns
oh joy
