My Daily Prompt – Fire
The night sky was on fire Sitting together to admire The spectacular sunset Humming a gentle duet We sat in awe of its beauty
Poetry
Poetry one of perhaps the best ways in which we can communicate and portray our feelings and ideas to one another. Here some Phyllis L. Holt originals.
Extol
He was so in love with her
Feelings he did not demure
Her parises he would extol
Atop a mighty telephone pole
Cherish
I cherish you with all my heart
Never holding back a single part
Your smile and laughter
Remembered long afater
Brighten
There was so much more to Christmas
Than all the tasty sweet little biscuits
A time to get together and share
Love affection and show you care
Perceptive
Frances was oh so preceptive
No use being deceptive
She’d see through the ruse
And she’d not be amused…
Purpose
His love for her reason enough
To push forward declare his love
Nothing else mattered, his goal
To shower her with love whole
Quiet
As I lay awake listening
Cuddled warm, wriggling
Beneath a fluffy downy quilt
Relax comfy without guilt
Listening, listening to the silent
Whispers from streets so quiet
Guilty
Guilty Of guilty pleasures, there are so many Like staying in your pyjamas all day Or the seductive movie you watch Hoping that you’ll never be caught The time you went skinny dipping Absolute best ...
Peculiar
He was a peculiar sort of chap
With his backward baseball cap
Raggedy jeans and slouchy top
And his oh so unruly mop
Some looked slightly askance
Wearily questioning his circumstance
Little did many realize
He was here to supervise
Although sporting the latest fashion
He was indeed full of passion
Carrying out his duties so well
Raising quietly an alarm bell
Should the need arise
He would could instantly revise
Instituting and creating a new game plan
As though he were a chameleon
Implicate
It was sad but it was true
Winds of change quickly blew
Sometimes good sometimes bad
Each time off the launching pad
Brisk
Autumn so appealingly vibrant
With monumental enticement
Leaves colourful and oh so bold
Enjoyment and delight tenfold
Specter
It was spooky and scary too
Opaque and quite see through
Moving too and fro over all
Hidden well in the rainfall
Smitten
Anyone could see she was smitten
By whatever he had just written
On a crumpled piece of note paper
Leftovers
Walking the street arm in arm
To keep each other from harm
