Gonna engulf you:

Hell to those who'd tamper with

My imminent plans!

When did I demote
You to a duke? It's been years . . . 
Since I called you King!

Sacred Passage

Fall's sacred passage:
Like a gold bird's feathers the
Burst of falling leaves.

Written for Haiku-Heights and the prompt of Sacred.

Respect

Find out what it means:
R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Give it up to me!



Only a day late for Sensational Haiku Wednesday and just in time for Jingle's Thursday Poets Rally!

Joyful encouraging bird
Like sweet sound of bells.

Springtime! And Nectar!

Springtime! And Nectar!

Pure bliss 24/7!

My angels just rock.

I wrote this Haiku a while ago, but found it a good fit for Haiku Heights' prompt of "Bliss."

Exploit's Evidence

Another Wordle prompt from Big Tent Poetry; I also tried a new form this week called an Etheree (thanks for telling me about it, Amanda!). This form uses 10 lines and 1 through 10 syllables, either ascending or descending; it allowed me to use all words in the Wordle.

Exploit's evidence: half-eaten debris
Blurred tongue swarms to embellish answers
Skirt reality, chant garbage
Of our possibilities
But it's temporary . . .

I'm just your dock; a

Straining backbone

Your weight like

A child

Grows.

Blueberry Waffles

Blueberry waffles
Then for lunch, chicken tacos . . .
Tonight, a picnic!

Written for Sensational Haiku Wednesday's prompt "food." This little piece came to me as I finished readying dinner!

Be Hushed

 A fib poem (1 1 2 3 5 8 syllables) for Three Word Wednesday's prompts of demure, offend, volatile.

Be

Hushed

Demure

Give nothing

That offends sense and

Wakes up that volatile dragon.

I Is For Imagination

Imagination:

Hold, play, laugh, breathe, stay, believe

Where our love unfolds.

This poem brought to you by ABC Wednesday and the letter I! And my own Imagination!

Recover, relieve, freed by

Appreciation.

Some Superpowers

Some  superpowers
That only melt mascara
Stutter, freeze the heart.

Beauty

Beauty autumnal:
Rich and warm burnished splendor
Knowing of its grace.

charm, feast, robust

I bet you're robust
Though you charm like a schoolboy:
Oh, to feast on you!

Belongings, Home

Liquidate my life

Shed belongings of roof, bed

Fly to a new Home.

Written for Sensational Haiku Wednesday (belong or belonging) and for  ABC Wednesday (using the letter H; which makes me think of Home).

You Could Rest

Another fib poem (experimental American haiku, 1 1 2 3 5 8 structure). Written for Jingle's Poets Rally Week 28.

You

Could 

Rest in

Sheltering

Sweet room after room

Of my tender feelings for you!

Big Tent: Word Pool

A lousy raise communicated by e-mail: that was my inspiration for Big Tent Poetry's weekly prompt. The assignment: to borrow words from whatever struck us at any given moment – finding words from our everyday lives – even if it meant stealing the words of others.

At least "the impersonal nature of this e-mail" ... a great line that wouldn't fit into my fib poem ... was rich with inspiration. All words straight from the boss's e-mail; just shuffled up a bit. :-) The spirit remains the same.

Thank You

Thank
You
Christine
For hard work
Your new salary
I am sorry you will see it.

Soooo Determined

So determined to
Seduce me when all I want:
Peace, silence and thought!

break, negative, surface

Negativity
Overwhelms, breaks soft places--
Leaves a hard surface.

Written for Three Word Wednesday, three keywords in italic.

G Is For ... Gyrates?

Gym Guy Gyrates
What's he working? Glutes? Please God
Help him finish fast!
