Sat here writing,

drinking a brew;

weaving words,

for a poem, or two.

 

Feel my craft,

a magical spell,

casting its net,

as you sample my hell.

 

I’ll spin you a line,

to make you feel good,

a twist at the end,

to chill the blood.

Award, Liebster Award

 

 

 

I’ve been honoured this past week to have been nominated for a Liebster Award. The award isn’t voted on by any kind of committee; instead, it is passed from one blogger to another, to recognize fellow bloggers with a sort of cyberspace pat on the back and cheerio. The “rules” for the award specify that, once nominated it is the recipient’s responsibility to:

  1. link back to who nominated you
  2. nominate five blogs with fewer than 200 follows
  3. let nominees know by leaving a comment on their sites; and
  4. add the award image to your site

Thank You!

A big thank you to Andy – ‘a finger pointing’  http://afingerpointing.org for nominating me for this award – please do take a moment to check out their blog, it is well worth it!!

 

 My Five nominated blogs are:-

  1. Plastic bag poetry  http://plasticbagpoetry.wordpress.com/
  2. Past and Future woven into one  http://bluehav.wordpress.com/
  3. Candid Concourse  http://candidconcourse.wordpress.com/
  4. 75 kaleidoscopes  http://rlbk75.wordpress.com/
  5. Brian Gaynor Photography  http://briangaynorphotography.com

 

These are a variety of blogs that I really enjoy visiting. It was really,really very difficult to pick only five. There are so many fabulous bloggers out there, and so many talented people to choose from.

 

Again – a big thank you to Andy – http://afingerpointing.org  for not only nominating me, but also for taking time out to visit.

Liar Liar!

anger, fantasize, Lies, poetry

A Lux soap.

 

 

 

 

 

 

You’re a liar!

With your stories –

You don’t know,

what the truth is.

 

Half told truths,

little white lies,

you’ve added the spin,

to your fantasies.

 

It’s had to keep up,

as you chatter away,

I don’t believe

a word you say.

 

Romanticise.

That’s what they say,

for the lies you tell,

and how you behave.

 

You don’t see the damage,

left in your wake,

destroying lives,

the tongue of a snake.

 

Now listen to me!

and there’s the rub,

there’s nothing romantic,

in what you’ve become.

Nightingale

Nightingale (Photo credit: torugatoru)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A nightingale sings

a wistful melody.

The smell of cherry blossom

on a fresh spring tree.

 

The smell of lilac

will soon be here,

along with the swallows,

and the summer air.
