Want To Know

I Want To Know

How the moon learned
to shine
Why planets don’t
get dizzy – spinning
What the stars do
during the day
Where clouds find
rain and snow
Who whispers to
the wind
When you knew
you
loved
me

Snow Day

~ Candace ~ 8 Comments

It’s ‘Stuff and Nonsense’ in the Garden today
Just for fun we have three made-up words to use in our poems –
snarfdiffanous, rhambangle and lalamilty.  I even added some of my own 😉

Snow Day

Delightful
Insightful
And just plain snarfdiffanous
The best part of all
There is no school
No stinking rules

Sledding
Heading
Down steepy hills
No stranger to danger
Scoff at lalamity
Don’t give a damnity

Amazing
Fire blazing
Snuggle under a rhambangle
Slurping hot chocolate
Watching cartoons
Munch crunching phaloons

So Long Friend

It’s time for ‘Bits of Inspiration’ in the Garden and today we’re getting that inspiration from Shoes

So Long Friend

time to give you the boot
my old friend
no use sticking out your
tongue
you just don’t support me
any longer
you’ve tied one on once
too often
our relationship is rather
run-down
there is no shine
i’m left feeling
flat
you and i no longer
fit
it’s not me, it’s
you

Mish has us cooking up some poetry over at d’Verse Poets Pub

Pie In The Sky

Something’s stirring
Perking, brewing
Stewing
I feel it simmering
Bubbling
Threatening to boil over
A half-baked plan
With no recipe
And I’ll serve it up
Garnish it with
Multi-colored sprinkles
Put it on your plate
Watch you slurp
All the love I can dish up
