A Cherry In The Autumn Sun
A poem for two wonderful friends
These are a few words for my wonderful friends Cherri and Autumn. I love seeing their Facebook pictures and they always cheer me up so much.
The music is the excellent "Cherry, Cherry" by Neil Diamond, a song I had forgotten but it is just classic Neil Diamond.

The Plagiaristic New Wave Tarot
Introduction I was not sure I could actually do this because the villanelle format is based on repetition., so I counted up the actual number of lines in a villanelle and got thirteen which I assume is appropriate for a New Wave Tarot based poem.

Slow Motion
Chapter 7 The slowing doesnβt arrive like a warning. It arrives like a thickening β a quiet shift in the internal physics of my body and mind. After the dimming, after the weight, after the quicksand, everything begins to move at a different speed. Not the world β me.

Very sweet. Captured the essence of friendship with an interesting rhyme scheme. The first time I've seen Tolkien in a poem. Nice. πAnneliese
Awww, this was extremely lovely! I loved it!
What a beautiful poem, and I adore those names so much!! πβ€οΈβ€οΈ
That's beautiful, Mike.
Excellent poem, Mike. Neil Diamond is one of the only 2 performers I spent the money to see in concert in my younger years. The man certainly put on a show.
