I love my pink umbrella
It attracts the finest fellas
I twirl it in the rain or sun
So I can find the “one”!

Anxiety

twisting thoughts abound

encircling troubled brain

around and around

confusion as movement seen

though never stops, seen clearly

What a great word that fits right into my happy birthday event this week! My daughter took me to South Denver to the Park Meadows Mall to meet my grandson and his three month old son. Only seven pounds still, he is perfect! He grabbed my fingers and being smiley and sweet. I held him for a bit and he was very animated whereas the first two months he was gathering strength and sleeping a lot. I love babies and holding those tiny hands was a great birthday gift!

Crying sobs echo through the hall

Jacob is sorely missed by all

Accident prone

Died alone

While looking for that damn baseball.

found his long tail caught in a trap

Cinquain Poetry Prompt 17: TRAP is your inspiration.

If writing can make you in the moment, in the character’s shoes, even a paragraph is worth reading. Similarly if music moves you to move, it too is a listeners dream. But art, combines all. Seeing a painting on the wall and you are mesmerized and wonder about the artist’s intent, what story they are telling, or touching a sculpture, or feeling the cracks or bumps in a piece of pottery, admiring color choices and textures, can bring you closer to the artist.
