Premium Member An Errant Balloon
Posted February 3rd 2025. For Brians contest An Errant Balloon I saw a balloon yesterday. Then I saw another again today. Floating along on a sunshine ray wending on its way. Where did it come from?

Embarrassed
EMBARRASSED Our limit of endurance Doesn't always show appearance Sometimes our often ignorance Doesn't give us reassurance So it surely is apparent That we may be incoherent When we know our way is errant And we are much too transparent We end up in a cluster At the smallest we can muster Or we begin to bluster About our losing luster Copyright 2212, Kathryn Search...

A misnomer of mine The splash of ink Which smears the page On my priceless artwork Over which I toiled and slaved Now leaves it’s mark on my perfect page I forever have grumbled And complained “Can’t I ever finish Without that smudge on my work To diminish?!!!!” Seems as I have grown older I’ve become less aware of Those small imperfections And...

My Errant Ways
I look into my mirror And inside I feel aghast, Once I had flawless skin, Those days have long since past. My hair, lank and grey Was once a shock of curls, Everybody used to say I was the prettiest of the girls. Heading for my dotage No fun left it seems, Memories though, sweet memories, I still have my dreams. And oh such dreams they are Of...

An Errant Divinity
An errent divinity- And I assured you I would try; In words, not simply put, but on the words it does rely; Of the aspects I am sure- I trusted and respected you from the start, For you stood up for me- When they were bound to break my heart. Again, you hadn't yet known me, loyalty you've forever shown me. You had...

Seeing through the wav’ring flame of light your porc’lain skin your brazen eyes so fair, the songs which stir the depth of frosty night do not waylay the course of love’s despair. For love of King, not I, thine heart’s declared. Oh, I am damned by wanton deed bespoke on Furies wings my cursed heart’s ensnared and in the...

Errant Firefly
If I ate chocolate naked While lounging on red satin sheets Beneath the light of a pale autumn moon Amidst a Smokey glaze of heavily perfumed incense With no else to admire the sight, Would you then pay attention to me? If I cursed you Taking myself into a burning house That had...
