Thursday Doors June 8th


 A 13th century house in Aveyron France.

top heavy
to save on taxes
charged by the  measurement
of the ground floor

needs work
for 800 years
not bad at all
something charming
about its two little doors
wonder who lives in it

GARAGE ADELAIDE SA

it's said

you can't make a silk purse

out of a sow's ear

well guess what !




 

Friday Writings # 79 ...PSU

 

 moved by the beauty of a summer's night
she picked up the precious shell
and pressed it to her ear
listening to the wind wail
through the pulled branches from trees
singing psalms of abiding neglect
she marvelled at the curled backs
of the waves so high they almost hit the moon
the sky pierced with stars seemed a better option
a safer place with its meteors and milky way
flying solo under the radar loop
dodging knives and the telephone had appeal
slipping through the cracks so to speak

TUESDAY TANKA # 322

TIGER

my tiger
tiger burning bright
my best friend
remembers
the dark forest of the night
at meal times only

he is sweet
a gentle creature
except when
a strange hand
tries to frame his symmetry
then all hell breaks loose

TANKA TUESDAY # 321...ACROSTIC


Can't fault granny's cosy house
O for the wings of a dove
Soprano singing sweetly
Your dear gran harmonising

 

Very nice to have good views
Instead of ugly brick walls
Everyone should enjoy this
Wealthy people have all the luck


Children love birthday parties
Happy homes should be like this
A lot of fun had by all
Rosy cheeks and lovely smiles
Magical moments of life
