Sunday Muse - Daisy Shucking Time


Loves me, loves ...;

(my love)


Shucking daisies 

Doesn't bother me 

I'm wishing she'd care 

Doesn't seem to be 

Though obnoxious not 

in her dictionary 


She's a sweet girl 

We could go far 

I'm the clinging type 

Doesn't appreciate 

Please pull them petals 

Daisies tell the truth 


(You say)

I love him love him not 

He loves me loves me not 

(I'll hope)

Last petal tells it true 

It'll say "I love you"

Friday Writings -- a (strong) secondary character point of view



(Door Knock) 

I am the Raven 
 
in a Poem named after me 
I co-star in Mr. Poe's best seller 

in that setting I was a pest at first 
but soon I became her bosom friend 

even so she never really understood me 
she thought she did, read it yourself, you'll see 

she lost her lover and that was her end 
going bat batty trying for more 

knocks on her Chamber Door 
but "Quoth (me,) Raven
"Nevermore""

persistence 
ends 

but I'll remain 
above her Chamber Door 

haunting her always 
for some more

Sunday Muse - 'tsup?



Aloof ?

I had smiled ...
(are you stuck up?) 
Are you afraid (of my ... 
purposes or motives?) 

It's just me, I smile a lot 
I meant no harm 

But that's okay 
I'm on row eight 
by the window 
Come chat a spell 
if you're lonesome 

Or say hello 
(a bit prissy)
(think I'll like her)
(hope she likes me)
