Horrors - a Poem for Sunday Muse for the Sunday Muse

 

Photography by Katerena Plotnikova

        Trouble Ahead 

Where is my flower girl, need her now

My wedding date is today, ruined 

Planned for a green wonderful setting 

Instead here am I poisoned forest 

Relegated to this awful Red 

Woman of the wilds I am not 

Where's my groom and my bridal party 

Wait, who is that coming here to me 

Followed by a big pack of red dogs 

Can it be his best man checkered shirt 

Jeans and sandals what is going on 

Woman of the wilds I am not 

In just a minute more are coming 

It's the groomsmen riding their RVs 

Horsemen they're not, all six falling off 

Jeeps with bridal party wearing tights 

Pastor Bob hands his chain saw to me 

Woman of the wilds I am not 

Fool me loosened my gown from the big tree  

Sawed down seven trees, was stopped on eight 

Strong hand took my saw caressed my brow 

It seemed my knight, come to rescue me 

Dear wake up, all waiting for my bride 

Woman of the wilds I was not

Close to ?? - a poem for Friday Writings

1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad Wagon (googled)

 

    On Getting Cozy 

 

Makes me think of closeness 

thinking of coziness

Two bods nesting together 

like a pair of kitty cats 

Maybe awake 

perhaps asleep  

Awake and playful 

lover's exercise 

Never standing 

that be silly 

Relaxed and cuddled 

sofa, lights turned low 

More pleasurable 

for the younger set 

Mind goes to beach wagons  

fifty-seven Chevy 

Front seat or back 

bucket or bench 

Memorable evenings late 

more've done than will admit 

On or near Lover's Lane, 

in the woods, edge of town

Wherever, just alone 

honor system, it works 

Coziness 

memorable 

Younger Daughter's Cat 

makes himself cozy with her (Her Photo)
