Magpie Tale & A-Z: X=X-ray, Y=Yarn, Z=Zebra




There are lots of visions in me,
They appear as dreamy as they can be;
Whenever I feel sleep,
Things start to haunt me, so deep.
.
I see whisker-faced kitten,
Good and cute sheep,
yellow feet of a chicken,
and walkies-talkies that beep.
.
I also see faces that are tan,
golden rays of the sun,
stars and their many a fan,
plus smiles on people’s faces, yours and mine!
.
I see poetry on your web page,
arts hanging on back of your door,
the ballerina dancers on stage,
plus music you’ve never heard before.
.
I see cucumbers and tomatoes,
cauliflowers and potatoes,
roasted ham, crispy and golden,
plus blueberry muffins, hot from the oven.
.
I see spaceship,
birds passing over my head,
evidence of friendship,
plus sailboats facing waves with no dread.
.
Of course, reveries also roll inside me,
Yet I want them stay in dreams and float free.
when I wake up,
I will simply hang them up…





X=X-ray



Y=Yarn



Z=Zebra

200th Post-Thankful of You in A-Z Challenge



Blogging feels like paradise
because of YOU, who is very wise!
It’s you
who filled this space with fresh air,
It’s you
who inspired my writing
with a rocking chair;
It’s you
who filled my comment box
with words apt and bright,
It’s you
who painted this part of sky
with rainbow and sunlight;
It’s you
who inspired me
how to have fun,
It’s you
who showed me
how to turn water into wine;
It’s you
Who fed my soul
with motivation and education.
It’s you
Who demonstrated to me that
loving your enemy leads to relaxation.

U=You, V=Very, W=Wise

A-Z challenge: R=Rain, S=Silence, T=Topology



Rain is the scent of spring,
The catalyst of passion,
The balm of pain,
The signal of transformation.




Silence is the time to feel
Something real,
Yet, it is still
And has strong will to fulfill.



I own all an apology,
I am no good at topology,
I love algebra and symmetry,
Yet go panic on advanced geometry.

A-Z Challenge=A Sonnet on M, L: Mushroom & Ladybug



A ladybug relaxes on a mushroom,
enjoying nature as a classroom,
It starts to rain,
The ladybug feels the pain.
She crawls under the mushroom's arms,
and nothing seems doing her harms,
A running hare steps on the mushroom's head,
So sad, the mushroom is hurt.
The ladybug is alive,
She encourages the mushroom to survive,
Together they form a charming view,
Cherishing life as if it is anew,
Their power may be small,
But courage makes them tall.

A-Z=I: I Enjoy Isolation



I enjoy isolation!

It is part of creative evolution,
Isolation projects satisfaction,
Via lots of actions,
Without direct objection,
Away from distractions,
Isolation is writers’ paradise,
A quality time to compose and surprise.

There are three different ways to write Palindrome poems, according to Inside My Poem Book:

1. Word Palindrome :- It can be read backwards, with the same words, for example, level, MADAM, racecar..
2. Mirrored Palindrome :-Here the words are reads the same forwards and backwards by letter and it is more difficult to write one
3. Line Palindrome :- in which the individual lines of a text make a palindromic sequence, that is, which reads forwards and backwards, by lines.

I write a Line Palindrome poetry on "I" and entering the following memes:

Big Tent Poetry/A-Z, F Is 4 Fish, G-man's FF 55




I like fish.

Words portraying fish could capture humans as well:

young fish, old fish;

big fish, small fish;

happy fish, sad fish;

runaway fish, teenager fish;


MY poems on Fish:


As yellowish as gold,

I‘m a naughty little fish

Refusing to grow old!

.

I'm a baby fish

That is fluffy, fatty,

And witty!

*****

If you were a fish, what kind of fish do you want to be?

Alone Together (4 Thursday Poets Rally Week 41)


Alone together,

For worse or for better,

No need to know your past,

No worrying about your look,

Let the cold fire blast

so that written words hook,

Miserable happiness will enlighten the darkness,

Alone together,

That’s joyful terror,

Alone together,

No other phrase to say it fairer,

Alone together,

No way to surpass the wether.
