Alternating Current
A very bad alternating current who
ill-treats me with
zaps has a
great aptitude for
math.
Alternating, adjusting accuracy.
Allowing, accepting alarms.
Announcing, albeit alluding to
Actions, of arrivals arriving.

Alternating Major and minor
Sitting
Being cloud-tossed
Emotionally abused
Heart-struck!
I will myself never ending amused
Deeply purposely used
How that poet knew how well
That Ravel
I'm looking
No I'm not
Decided on the lover's knot
Eventully alternating
Can't stop being
Indecive alot
Since I'm always caught
In my running
Very soon I
End the same
Never sticking
Even I
See the game
So quickly changing
Experience overrules prescription of form
when euphony carries off a poem beyond the norm
a poulter's measure is a couplet form p(couplets of 12 syllables,alternating with 14,often used for serious statements or for burlesque.
Brian Strand 2011
I had taken a seat along the sequences of curiosity
When suddenly my mistress dawned
Her eyes alternating in succession
With the pattern that were mine
“Hello” was the word that ejected from her lips
Firecrackers had begun ascending
History was being sculpted before us
They turned out for the ball
decked out in their finest
gowns of green
sleeves frilly lace-trimmed
weaving and waving their charms
to a gentle breeze
alternating from deep, rich tones
to a sun-splashed yellow
topped off by lush garlands
wreathed offerings
yesterday I had flu-like symptoms
let the aches and pains consume me
slid into the misery with gusto
laid away the day in a recliner
sometimes alternating to the couch
I was not human, I was a sickly whickly
feeling sorry for myself, and yet,
resting profusely, odd for me
How fickle are the humors of the heart,
capricious and of alternating hue,
a masked chameleon of cunning art;
transmuting colours often hid from view.

MMMM...
Swirls of alternating colors- brown and... light brown.
A spice that men would kill for a mere five-hundred years ago
combined with a sugary dough and frosting, baked into a sticky, spicy, SENSATIONAL
delight.
Praise the Great Spirt in his wisdom for blessing us with Cinnamon Buns!
Look to me I will comfort thee.Eyes speak,as I touch your cheek.Forever my love,child gift
from above.Greatness you will be,the best part of me.Child to adult,know I watch you
dear.Your alternating look becomes so clear.Now until the end of time I cherish these
moments that you have always been mine.
Alternative facts make sense to Luella
Embellishing and alternating truth is her forte’
Her career of choice was readily determined
Politics jumped to the forefront
It might possibly be her only choice
White House Press secretary
or Ambassador to a foreign country?
That is what she is pondering now.
Our children see others lie with impunity
Simply blow out the light, darkness perverts civility

à deux
for fun
you and me
I hold the pen
and write
a first word
you go next
say a word
any word
or phrase
any phrase
whatever comes
to your mind
we’ll go on
alternating
until we’re all done
then I’ll finesse it
and call the poem ours
a sweet collaboration
AP: Honorable Mention 2021
the face I see is furrowed fields
as if dug deeply by the plow of
life penetrating into the soul
as seeds are planted to become
crops of experience alternating
with joy and sorrow as the years
passed by with health and pain
of drought and floods which are
ingrained upon the facade of the
man of furrowed fields
Sailing the seas on a lyrical sloop,
visiting pensmen in a metrical loop
with alternating laughs and sighs,
I smile and realize
the sun never sets on PoetrySoup.
In every time zone, in every land,
shining on each seashore's sand,
a seashell or a nautilus
sings to amuse or slaughter us,
from a poet, awake, pen in hand.
Serenaded silence
Under blushing sun
Swinging hands holding
Flowering love
Fledgling fingers
Jousting to arrhythmic beats
Summer soliloquies
Too shy to fluently speak
Sweet somethings
Whispered in ticklish ears
Swirling sentiments
Searching to endear
Grown-up glances
Alternating until one
Longing lips converging
Under blushing sun
Kings may come, kings may go,
I go on forever.
Letters in a constant flow,
Recording each endeavour.
On the walls and in the halls
You may find that I vex,
Waxing tall or shrinking small
And alternating sex.
Seas I ford, I go abroad
Heeding my vocation,
Evading eyes and compromise,
Resourceful, I claim all disguise,
Even bilocation!
The bed covers grew longer and longer.
As the continuous thread was fed,
from the spindle to the spools unwinding and rewinding,
from spool to spool twisting and weaving its threads,
through the eyes of the needles,
and into stitches of rows that zigged zagged,
In alternating colors of yellows, blues, and reds,
with prints of daffodils across the covered beds.
