Folding Into Autumn

Thank you Melissa for sharing Gillian’s fold poetry form here at #dversepoetspub.

first frozen cobwebs.
Summers Embers.
#foldpoems.

Summers Embers, radiate their last heat,
Orange touches both sky and tree tops,
Fold, fold, fold away memories of summer, 
Melancholic feelings of wasted time under sun, 
October’s gloom steals their last heat,
Windy vortex touches both sky and tree tops,
Acorns fall with the memories of summer,
Cobwebs start to freeze with first frosts,
Scarecrows feeling, they wasted time under sun, 
Apple pies baked and shared, with summers last ice cream, 
Firewood now adding to their last heat.

Quadrille #183 – A Sliver of a Poem

hello all at #dversepoets pub this evening where we are writing quadrilles a poem of 44 words to include the word sliver.

Spider
 sliver #quadrille.


A sliver of dawn sunlight catches,
My smog covered web,
Giving away my locale.

 I sliver away like the adder,
In the foggy morning light,
Until my killing web recedes.

This autumn misty morn,
Mating season has arrived,
Droplets covering slivers of my web.

doodle bug

OpenLinkNight #345

hi all out there in poetry blog land just bit of fun for #dversepoetpubs open link night.

Doodle bug poem.

Doodle all day
Doodle all night
One line after another
Until the pages are full
I have caught the doodle bug
Is it infectious you may ask?
Why I hope so
It may even calm the savage beast
Just give them empty page and pen!

Siblings afoot

Barking at the wind

hi #dversepoetspub tonight you have prompted us to create a poem about our siblings. above is a link created by me and my siblings back in lockdown over a video meeting.

#so a second part has been added with a few reminders for them to giggle over about some of our antics growing up. a link to this will be shared via WhatsApp.

Poetics: Siblings, the ties that bind and gag!*
Siblings afoot.
(Barking at the wind part 2)

Run babysitter run.
This foursome will become more.
Growing up together,
Taking on the world.

Fun babysitter fun,
This fivesome will become more
Throwing cushion together,
Taking on the world.

Gone babysitter gone,
This sixsome will become more,
Learning the skills of live together,
Conquering the world.

Six grown into many,
Watch out world here we come,
Stronger together than alone,
Still barking at the wind.
