Karen Jones Poet Free verse

Morning Tasks

Dew drops grace green grasses
Soothing like my pearly power shower
I choose the right outfit for an orange day
Under the fruit bowl by Vincent Van Gogh 
Breakfast bar stool welcomes hungry hips
Honey dew melon kisses lips
Pray meditate talk to God and myself 
Water plants feed perky pets sweep steps
Thunderous thud at the French door
Blue genes deliver the paper boy
Who always smells like molasses
Busy red rush for beige boisterous bus
Cool car pool to trendy train that passes
Helium houses that empty again of masses
Spied by sharp eyed animals of prey
Early bird flight climb sky
By Water Lily Lake
Sun is a ball of fire rolling uphill
A wise bald eagle relaxes on top of the world
His seat red, white, blue flag’s pole by the mill
Sun rays in his face
Tattoo him as silhouette Smokey gray

Silent One March 9, 2024 at 11:08 AM I really liked how your poem is a sensory-rich exploration of the everyday rituals and experiences that shape our lives, infused with imagery, symbolism, and a touch of whimsy. Karen Jones March 9, 2024 at 11:49 AM So glad you liked it Silent One that means a lot to me. Thanks!

Duke Beaufort March 9, 2024 at 5:33 AM OMG Karen, there's so much going on to get the world started. I love that there's an eagle who relaxes watching this all. You give us a lot to think about here. I'm thinking calm is good! However, I too often wonder about all the activity in progress and how difficult it is to fathom all of it happening at the same time. All incredible. Karen Jones March 9, 2024 at 5:40 AM Indeed! You make my day with your wonderful thoughts and insights thank you!
