Poetry Contest This Week Is Rhyme

So, it doesn't rhyme ever line

Does that matter? No, rhyme

is still there above this time

in this contest it is okay

people will vote and we will see

the rating of one, two, or three

that is what it takes to win

and humor usually has an in

prizes are fun to receive

it is not easy to deceive

the judges favor humor

and prefer no rumor

enter anyway I say

Today is the starting day!

~~

Here is a couple that came in this morning:

Jessie Lou the monkey🐒

Loves her two puppies

Would like to teach them to ride donkeys🐴

She wears bandanas

And is always hiding bananas

~

The puppies start liking bananas

And now they are wearing bandanas

I have lots going on today

Getting my poetry out of the way.

Life can be silly

Also kind of frilly

I love me a dilly

bar, chocolate, nuts and

caramel too.

Really not very good for you.

Who cares anymore,

I do what I want not what I say

Hey!

Let’s talk wants versus needs

I want what I see

I am what I am

I see that I am what I see that I be

Yikes! Now I’m confused,

Am I me or am I not.

That I may have forgot

where I was going with this rhyme.

Maybe I’ll start over one more time.

Starting over with the end in sight

So we won’t be here reading into the night.

One more thing to put out there -

Have you ever pulled out your hair?

I mean really pulled it out?!!

It hurts, it will make you shout!

LOUD! So don’t do it!

Spreading Intentions

Frankincense and myrrh maybe a little rue,

Making a potion that knows just what to do,

Say a few words whispered into the air,

Intentions set tight what matters there.

Light the candle let the flame hit the wick,

Clear your mind let the energy run thick…

Move your body to the sway,

Listen to the wind whisper “hey”…

Hear the internal voices rise about and stir,

Then whisper whatever you wish to infer…

Positive intentions bring good and peace,

Negative vibes help spread destructive release.

Stay connected and consciously aware,

Rather than making wishes without a care.

Take a moment to think always take head,

When we create~remember we make what we seed.
