http://fivedotoh.com/2023/04/11/fowc-with-fandango-nullify/
and at Fandango’s one word challenge we have nullify #FOWC
Yellow. #limerick.
There’s a lad whose eyes are yellow,
Whiskey never made him mellow,
His mind it would nullify,
His anger it would amplify,
His voice nothing but a bellow.

#FOWC with fandango . one word challenge “succulent”.
#dverse poets pub area talking about pressure. Thank you frank for the prompt
Succulent diamond.
#shenryu.
Succulent diamonds,
Earth’s hidden treasure stolen,
Used for shiny bling.
Would I want to be a diamond. A nice hard shiny diamond. I have read a report of those who would like to have their ashes compressed into a diamond…….
Really! What a daft idea who buys that shiny shit. Why do we dig holes in the ground chasing shiny baubles? Bling really what a waste of valuable resources. The pressure this puts on our planet just for a bit of shiny decoration.
Gold, diamonds and other shiny shit is wasted when used to decorate us. Let’s recycle what we have already! Dig it out of landfills, melt down Mr T’s gold chains etc, etc, etc. Use it to improve science, communication, our knowledge, etc, etc, etc.
Earth under pressure,
Free her from stupidity,
Wisdom now required.

” Anyone can be a father but it takes a real man to be a Dad.” unknown child. gave me the inspiration for my piece.
we have been asked to include three song titles by Punam at #dverse.
the titles i have chosen are;
song for dad by Keith Urban
my fathers eyes by Eric Clapton
your daddy loves you by Gill Scott Heron.
Dad’s receipt!
#fatherhood.
For sale or hire, multi child rabble,
writing this song for dad.
Damaged but not forgotten.
Comes with loving Mum.
Babysitters beware,
For I have my fathers eyes.
Must keep receipt,
Limited time offer,
Super hero required.
Strong together,
With added brothers,
Father long gone,
Dad always present.
Child rabble,
your Daddy loves you.
With memories,
Of a father and a dad.
Some bad
some,
Incredible.

#Fowc harmony
De from whimsygizmo hosted #dversepoetspub this evening prompting a scare.
I have also included the word harmony from #fowc.
bring out them heads
Scarecrow Harmony.
#Quadrille (scare), #fowc (harmony)
Twas a dark and scary night,
At the scarecrow harmony,
Building night of the next,
Generation.
Two headed harmonies,
From plastic Halloween head ideas to,
Next year’s scarecrows made in spring,
This consecrated Halloween party,
Is scarecrow harmony,
On a dark and scary night.

My meltdown warning
An unheard voice, now near end,
inner loud released.

The life of the story can only fit into a few words, but what if those words were stories, and then love became poetry.
