Reaching high to the heavens
Rising up
To the sky
A single rose of remembrance
Captured by a
Child’s eye.
So we pause for the many
Hate had barreled
To die,
And remember the courage
Of all who
Violence defy.

What grace allowed
Through ocean’s sigh
And earth’s old core
That plumed near by,
Embraces life
In all that die.

In the glory
Of nature
In the very
Pink
Of life,
Petals unfurl
In the garden
Full of
Blessing
To thrive.

Where the muse
Fills the senses
‘Afore first step
Indoors,
The gestalt
Inferences
To avow
Art’s in store.

Side by side
Nose to fence
They stand in awe
And suspense:
Here’s a duck
There’s a mouse.
Is the red thing
Their house?
What do animals
Eat?
Not small children?
Just treats?
From their safe
Vantage point
The zoo does not
Disappoint.
And they admire
The goose
Glad its not
On the loose.

In the shade
Out of sun
I am still
Having fun.
Even these
Stubborn bubbles
Will stop
Giving me troubles.
I’ll persist
And resume
Turning a chair
To a play room.

Not ripe in May
Not quite an apple
Mandrake grows best
In partial dapple.
No screams will sound
When it is pulled
Though tales will try
To have you fooled.
The fruit is fine
In moderation
But beware of higher
Concentration.
Medicinal
Though it may well be,
Won’t eat the seeds
If it were me.

Come the peak
Of a morning
Perched atop
Milky alps,
A mug of brew
And its message
Wakes the mind
Warms the heart.
For the Friday RDP Challenge: Coffee

Helmet on
Harness tight
Zip along
In a flight
As gibbons chatter
Out of sight
In the tree tops’
Stunning height.

When your home
Packs away
On your feet
In your bags,
The entire
Wide world
Is your glorious
Backyard.
