Dancing To the Song of a Loon
Dappled light shimmered from a golden moon, and peered into a grove of bent willow trees. Arched branches swayed in a gentle breeze, as if shadow dancing to the song of a loon as she warbled the lyrics of her mating tune. July 15, 2022 Bite Size Poem No 49 Contest Sponsored by Line Gauthier...

GOODLUCK Gutless muffled monarch wooed millions to the poll, Oozing pathetic speech of poverty (I once had no shoes) On congruent grounds we let him, though we hated his coterie. Disappointed, we wail, waiting substitute to end the reign of quack Lacklustre, insipid and a pervading naivety. Unvaried captain rocks this boat, gagged by plunderers. Circles...

GOODLUCK Gutless muffled monarch wooed millions to the poll, Our feeble lord enforced by pathetic speech of poverty (I once had no shoes) On congruent grounds of pain we forced him, though we hated his coterie. Disappointed, we wail waiting surrogate to lead to unending journey of relief Lackluster, jejune as pervading rot lingers Unvaried captain rocks our...

THE FORLORN LOON The sound of the forlorn loon Came hauntingly across the bay Shining near bright as day In the sky was a huge white moon When I approached the tiny creek Where I knew the loon would be I wondered why a creature such as he Would be one I'd take time to seek I felt as though the mournful sound This bird...
