The Weekend Share #160

Drying curling leaves

Succumb to enrich the earth

On you spring roots feed

Standing stalwart in the chill, as the cold black oversees

The red flamed leaves are still seen present on the trees

They refuse to acquiesce till northern winds abound

And when they’re blown away, we hear a mournful sound

Another autumn laid to rest, another season comes

Remaining flowers disappear as does the bees’ constant hum

As spring relented so must fiery autumn follow

Presenting all the trees so bare and looking hollow

The sadness of one season gone should not be looked upon as tragic

Because the starkness of the trees will soon be draped in snow white magic.

100 Word Wednesday: 174

It is my abject opinion

And disagree you might

The aleatory of my future

Seems unimaginative, even trite

Any visceral attempt to change it won’t succeed

A special crystal ball isn’t what I need

Just like the “rest of us”, trying to survive

Avoiding conflict, striving to stay alive

If you think that life’s a gamble

I would say you’re right

Might as well use an 8 ball

To see a future plight

All in all we’re lucky to be still hanging onto earth

And live lives to the fullest each day for what they’re worth.

Abject – Word of the Day Challenge

FOWC with Fandango — Trite

Oh, Charlie, I think I’ll faint, I feel so very dizzy

She fell against his arm seeing the ground so busy

Charlie certainly intended this to occur

He knew that such patterns were averse to her

It was a plot for her to fall on him so near

I suppose when love’s to blame, you cannot chide him, Charlie dear.

Seinfeld:

One-Liner Wednesday – Torture (without pain)

Beauty beyond compare of her ”twas often said

Oozed from every pore on her pretty head

Her porcelain skin was translucent white

Luminescent eyes were everyone’s delight

If only she was human than all this would be fine

And the jellyfish she was wouldn’t want on you to dine

She wavers so seductively in her ocean hotel deep

If you were enchanted, it would be your endless sleep.

The possibilities are endless is often said or heard

But are they really? I beg to differ with that word.

Is it possible to dream or wish, have that plea come true?

Or is it simply “universe” controlled and all up to you?

We’re just under the surface, ready to emerge

From the Whitehouse aberration who is on the verge

He’ll provoke and prod his followers to raise a fuss

We will rise up from the deep to fresh and new that welcomes us.
