If I could capture the scent
of my pink lilies
I would bottle it.

Falling Flakes -Double Reversed Katauta-

The snow falls outside
flakes are beautiful
I wonder if it will stay
going to get rain
sooner or later
supposed to get rain today.

Wee Leprechaun-Double Sedoka-Katauta-

That wee leprechaun
just stubbed his toe on a chair
he curses like a sailor.

I gave him a hug
he gave me a pot of gold
guess I'll have luck all day long.

Poor wee thing. I feel sorry for him. Wouldn't happen, if he wasn't so short. LOL

Kiss Me, I'M Irish -Reversed Katauta-

"Kiss me, I'm Irish," he says 
leprechaun, thinks he's all that 
then, wiggles his tongue.
