Sunday Muse Poem -- Now What?

 

Other side 

Not sure how I got here 

Guards, guards, guards, everywhere 

I trusted--now these bars 

Not a prison but what 

For my safety they say 

I just wanted to climb 

Climb up that tall giant 

Sixteen story challenge 

Not the climb their worry 

But getting back down, whew 

Didn't tell them, I won't 

Lifelong intent--I'd fly

Weekly Scribblings -- The Hunt, Little but Old

[click on picture for large, click again for very large picture]

 Hunkered Down 

I'm hunkered down not hidden very well 

Like a little bunny rabbit, real still 

You'll see me if you're looking really good 

Little but actually I'm very old 

My bones are brittle my joints are rusty 

A terrible stew not good for cooking 

Here with my friends violets and pansies 

Shaking in fear--good catch I wouldn't make 

Dust over blue terrible color too 

Please walk on by I'm not the one for you
