back then where
wanting to be a
grownup was
a big dream
but responsibilities
have lost their appeal
pigtails, and
imagination,
excitement
of riding
without training wheels – oh, the
innocence of youth

This is my last Shadorma for Eliot’s November Shadorma challenge, so I thought to end with a fun topic. 🙂 Hope you enjoy! ❤
Constants from
the circle of life
death’s timing
birth’s lighting
new seeds bearing sanguine hues
consolation prize

when vowels
and consonants join
forces, they
create a
magnetic effect so strong
grips will not loosen
their union
paints a gold sunrise
yet, they have
what it takes
to produce sharp, knife-like pain
be mindful of both

in the midst
of shattered pieces
lies one that
exudes the
slightest hint of a sparkle
needing tender care

Today is
for celebrating
our blessings
with friends and
family near or far, with
laughter and good food
but this day
isn’t the only
time to show
gratitude
each sunrise provides a new
opportunity

traveling
they wander with grace
cautiously
ears alert
grazing occasionally
complaints unfounded
they were first
time buyers in the
neighborhood
changing times
head-on, they meet their demise
one more point for man

Energy
level heightened with
red letters
bringing the
theater into full view
mezzanine magic
parody
entertainment for
three levels
of smiling
ticket holders – laughter is
the best medicine
