Kinetic Days and Nights

old things look different in the light of latter years. latent appeal of patina, driven by kinetic days and nights. bronzing of biblical bravery with no forensic fears. the lilting loveliness of velveteen rabbit and fairy tales. miniscule muscles bruise and buffalo into iambic fame. pigeons likely to stain statues, poop on patina’s parade. beautiful bird baths wipe away the superachiever’s shame. antiquated arsenal of party poopers wearing yellow shades. Standing in the rain so long without the umbrage of an umbrella. The air up there, chameleons the charming gallant green style. Her torch fearlessly fired up, welcoming the weary. Our Bella! Liberty’s perfect patina color amuses the Mona Lisa. She smiles. 6/28/2018 Patina Contest

Kim, your fresh, fearless imagery has given a new luster to the term 'patina.' Really enjoyed this one. ~ Gershon

Thanks so much, Gershon! Whether my writing gathers attention or not, I follow where it takes me.
