Premium MemberRed, White, Blue Yellow

The kids are just fine
On this Wednesday eve
Our lives intertwine
Until one takes leave

On this Wednesday eve
We huddle in the waste
Until one takes leave
From this bombed-out place

They’re readied for school
Packed up for the day
Ballet class in tule
Then we hurry away

Packed up for the day
The evacuations begin
Then we hurry away
From the siren’s din

Distraught by expectations
Life’s daily demands
Guiding child’s aspirations
Mold their lives in our hands

Life’s daily demands
From missiles, we flee
Mold lives in our hands 
As we dodge the debris

We discuss the whole day
Watch the news, sip our wine
In lands far away
We witness war’s crimes

Huddled in lost places
We assess the whole day
Do they hear us, or see us, or know us 
In lands far away?


Premium MemberAutumn Flurry of Windswept Sooth

Those pesky leaves adored by youth. Hued leaves and wind, a conjoined twin. Autumn flurry of windswept sooth.* Kids harvest fell-wings, to jump in. Hued leaves and wind, a conjoined twin. The twirl, the whirl of crimson red. Kids harvest fell-wings, to jump in. Crisp yellow, brown and purple fed. The twirl, the whirl of crimson red. Six feet deep, each yard grows fatter. Crisp yellow, brown and purple fed. When swept in piles, they oft’ scatter. Six feet deep, each yard grows fatter. Autumn flurry of windswept sooth. When swept in piles, they oft’ scatter - Those pesky leaves adored by youth. 9/8/2022 Contest: AUTUMN PANTOUM Sponsor: Caren Krutsinger Rhymezone used to verify rhymes *sooth - reality

Premium MemberCherry Blood Red

Fleshy; juicy; luring cherry, blood-red
Stone within it, though hard, never does hurt
Kids to toothless old goes chewing ahead
Adding with fruits and salads as dessert

Stone within it, though hard, never does hurt
Heart-shaped; looks as though bleeding endlessly
Adding with fruits and salads as dessert
One could go on eating it zealously 

Heart-shaped; looks as though bleeding endlessly
Kids to toothless old goes chewing ahead
One could go on eating it zealously
Fleshy; juicy; luring cherry, blood-red

Premium MemberA Treasured Folder

Loveliest memories the kids couldn’t eyewitness
When browsing their father’s tab, found a folder 
The new couple were swapping the looks of sweetness
Fascinated with the scintillating moments of sober

When browsing their father’s tab, found a folder
Cognized, it was the wedlock ceremony of their parents.
Fascinated with the scintillating moments of sober
Giggled and watched till the end with adherence.

Cognized, it was the wedlock ceremony of their parents.
The new couple were swapping the looks of sweetness
Giggled and watched till the end with adherence.
Loveliest memories the kids couldn’t eyewitness.

Trick or Treat
(Ghosts)

These ghosts have walked the streets before,
their hollow eyes embarking for the light;
the streets are glad they’re here once more,
going house to house at night.

Their hollow eyes embarking for the light —
Adults beside the sheets that they once wore
going house to house at night
are filled with life by ghosts they so adore.

Though the candy’s not for them tonight,
the streets are glad they’re here once more;
the owls have left their porch light bright.
These ghosts have walked the streets before.

Premium MemberBedtime - a Pantoum

... but then I see those inquiring eyes, that familiar look:
my brother wants me to tell him a story.
"It's way past your bedtime, you're just gonna doze!"
As he begs incessantly, "Pretty please, please,"

My brother wants me to tell him a story:
the one with the dragon and the king.
As he begs incessantly, "Pretty please, please,"
Until finally I just give in.

"The one with the dragon, and the king,
the pretty princess, and the slimy frog!"
Until finally I just give in
(as usual he's passed out like a log)

"The pretty princess and the slimy frog!"
"It's way past your bedtime, you're just gonna doze!"
As usual he's passed out like a log,
but then I see those inquiring eyes, that familiar look.
