Earl Schumacker Poet Verse

Prism

Prism

                                      Driving wild
                               Bending over corners
                   Racing on curved rainbow colored roads   
            Without sleep my gal and I just keep on trucking  
        Like a couple of lost prisms fractured by the lightning strikes
In turn, we reflect on branching roads, break of day, and make our way back home

Brenda Meier-Hans December 30, 2014 at 1:09 PM Glad to see you made it back safely. Congratulations on your win Earl. Earl Schumacker December 30, 2014 at 1:37 PM Hi Brenda, Thank you so much. In reality I would never drive a big rig truck. I was keeping in the spirit of the Jon Bonjovi tune, "It's My Life." (The tractor trailer blew up in the video that accompanied this tune.) Congratulations to you too on your excellent win in this contest. Have a very Happy New Year. Take care. Earl

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders December 18, 2014 at 11:53 PM Love this, Earl! Feels like a Springsteen song - Born to Run, Thunder Road...hugs, Rhonda Earl Schumacker December 19, 2014 at 2:02 AM Hi Rhonda. Thank you so much. I read your Birth Of Dawn yesterday. I did not want to comment on it until the contest results were in. Your poem is great. My poem was item #5 Jon Bonjovie's big trucker tune; "It's My Life." It is actually a great driving song and similar to Born to Run by Springsteen. I wish you luck in the contest with your excellent write. Earl

Jan Allison December 18, 2014 at 5:57 AM beautifully penned Earl you took me on a lovely journey good luck in the contest:-) hugs jan xxx Earl Schumacker December 18, 2014 at 7:04 AM Good morning Jan. Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed this structured one. I just now posted a crazy prism poem called "Prisms Holes." I'm long over due for a silly write. This poem was a struggle. Have a lovely day. Earl
