Todays prompt: Write a poem using the words “yellow”, “concealed”, and “timeless”

***

Beauty is as beauty does is the old saying and I totally agree. Timeless beauty often describes a concealed unpleasant personality. The true meaning of beauty is often hidden inside while the opposite is true also. A sunny yellow exterior may hide a dark hidden secret. How to tell the difference? Don’t call, don’t tweet, don’t text, just meet face to face and listen. An honest conversation reveals a personality.

No roundabout version of his opinion was going to be heard, no subtle references in the story at all. Nope, Joe always just blurted out his chill version of events in outstanding clarity, at least that’s what he thought.

“It began with breakfast service to our cabin. Our business assets provide this weekend to their clients once a year, clients meaning us,” he smiled. “The reason of course is obvious, to promote well being and encourage us to drop more clients their way. Why some of you decided to visit rancor on the poor server, I have no idea. He was trying to do his best and didn’t deserve your criticism. We are a large group here and of course everyone ordered something different to eat. The weekend is free, the surroundings and accoutrements are free and so is the service, no tips required.”

Joe looked around seeing a still disgruntled audience. “You guys are hopeless!”

“I love this one!” Julie was trying on her first homecoming dance dress in a crowded fitting room. The form of it was tightly fitted, dramatic black in color with an off center diagonal slit.

The grandmother looked askew and reminded everyone of her always ready opinions, “you’re only fifteen, you have all your life to wear such a dress. This is too old for you!” Of course she was the only one in the small room that spoke out.

Then Julie’s mom lovingly looked at her daughter and chimed in, “I like it too, Julie”.

Concealing his cape under his straight suit lines was an impossible task. An epic fail, he thought to himself. It shouldn’t take a genius to design an easy to pack cape that is made of sheer material. It’s just for effect, it doesn’t shield me. After all, it’s not like I’m Doctor Strange!

It started as a challenge, a way to build relationships, try to erase old disagreements and regrets, and start fresh. The idea was to set up a cabin in the mountains free of internet and daily text exchanges and breathe in a new skin in the mind.

All was going well until the blackness of night surrounded the cabin. The guide confirmed the growl was only a friendly bear, nothing to be worried about. “He’s just letting us know this is his territory and he knows we’re here.”

The phantom in my mind, a sad projection, a man undecided of whom I have affection.

The sailor who visited and left her abandoned, coming back to see his love dying, now shameful and branded.

A princess and a prince in love, but then there’s questions, set by her father, and riddles define directions.

Lovers four amidst a veil of poverty, passion reigns even in adversity.

A diva in love, jealousy ensues, chased by the authorities, she chooses to lose.

Murder, wealth, love, all flounder in this play, where tragedy, deception and curses fill the days.
