Walking

walking down your street
slow dreaming in the waking world
I see only your broad back

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

hunched over reading a thick book
you sighed and yawned and then took a look
down to where I spied
then make a cried
hey you! get off the fence, you crook!



For Limerick and Haiku Prompt

Time

did time move and spill
even when I am standing utterly still
should I kick and curse
make a sigh and a verse
is this life or is it another drill?


For Mad Kane's Limerick and Haiku Prompt

Bad Job

one meeting of few words, that was all
later no answers to my phone calls
ignored like a plague
why are they so vague
this job's nothing I want to recall


For Limerick and Haiku Prompt

Memories

memories travel
running fast at departure
slow on arrival

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

she had lost all desire to prose and rhyme
her poetry were absolutely sublime
did they disappear
along with her fear
that her memories were erased from time to time


For Limerick and Haiku Prompt

Money

spend all day to drive my
small fortune away in attempt
to keep my happiness

...................................


he smiled and said don't pick love, pick money
then shouted "hurry, make more money"
passing out fliers
selling short desires
this from a man dressed as a bunny

Lies and Deception

This entry is for Mad Kane's Limerick and Haiku Prompt. This week's theme: lies and deception.

lies you tell me are cheap
like your icy kisses and hugs
I don't want to keep

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

all the lies you tell me will soon depart
I see without eyes your deceptive art
tell the truth, don't stall
trust all or nothing at all
I don't suppose you understand my heart

New Year

This entry is for Mad Kane's Limerick and Haiku Prompt. This week's theme: wine and spirits or the New Year or, if you prefer, both.

This is also for Sunday Scribblings: New or New Year.

new year resolution
to do nothing, sleep through time
and wait for nothing

------------------------

this year's new year resolution
to stop making new resolution
better to sit and whine
drinking spirits and wine
than end up making retribution

Multitasking Mania

there once was a girl with big thighs
who likes to jump really high
ice cream, she couldn't resisted
jumping and eating, she insisted
ice on her face, she declared, "not too high"

limerick

be nice to mom's pet
mom's very picky about Met

wife soon runs off with the vet


haiku

shake your wist like so
don't twist your hand, use your wist
throws shells at her face
