This harp is quite special, a fabulous thing!
A portable package with two rows of strings!
You’re hearing the magical, mystical sound
Of new possibilities looked for—and found!
O listen for echoing phrases intwined
To harmonize body with heart, soul and mind.
A pleasure to play and a blessing to hear;
We celebrate now: Daphne Phoenix appears!
And don’t forget Zephyr, the EDC* Flute,
A song in your pocket and awfully cute!

*EDC: Everyday Carry

Chasing Rainbows #Decima #Poem

Posted on by

The rainbow shimmers pure and bright
With hidden hopes just round the bend
And pot of gold there at its end!
O would it not bring such delights?
We think by day and dream by night,
Forgetting current time and space
For what could be and giving chase.
Yet meanwhile, as we race and run,
Our time has passed, and life is done.
How have we spent our given grace?

Ronovan Writes Décima Poetry Challenge Prompt No. 53: (CHASE) in the C rhyme line.

Phoenix #Haiku #Poem

We mourn the old forms
Not seeing brilliant new life
Rising from ashes

Rising from ashes
Never failing to get up
Always try again

Always try again
Each moment another chance
To strengthen our wings

To strengthen our wings
Ever soaring toward our dreams
Rising from ashes

Spider spinning gauze
Delicate, strong looking glass
Reflecting our hope.
Pilgrims progress faithfully
Through incense of illusion.

and Linda Kruschke’s Metonymy and Paint Chips Prompt. I chose gauze/spider web, Plymouth Rock/pilgrims, and sagebrush/incense. I also used looking glass, but not as Metonymy. You’ll find the prompt here:

Bees #Nonet #Poem

Posted on by

A bee’s life is valid in itself.
We could learn so much, if we tried!
Living in community,
Taking just what they need,
Giving all they can!
We miss the mark
Looking out
For MY
Needs…
