Premium Member I Saw It

“I saw it! I saw it!”, the groundhog announced.
“My shadow – it grew and it flounced!
Run! Hide! Save yourself and those you love
and leave the cold to the ground above!
Six more weeks of huddling and cuddling.
Here’s to the wonderful warmth of snuggling!"

Premium Member Rumpelstiltskin Thought He Would Get Baby

Rumpelstiltskin's temper pronounced.
So many hard feelings he flounced.
Suspected maybe
He would get baby
Spun gold for no reason. Was trounced.

Fairy Tales

Today I saw
a fairy
light and glittery
sparkling

It giggled
a sound like
delicate silver bells
and waved at me

She fluttered
over to me
and smiled
flounced her
flowery skirt
smoothed her perfect hair

she flew off

then continued
pulling the cat's tail
stealing pencils
and guiding ants
toward the kitchen.

Premium Member You Are a Familiar Right

Hey, cat, you are a familiar, right?
Ebony turned to see a strange cat, white.
I guess I am, I belong to a witch.
Can you please tell me if this tarot is Mitch?

Cat did not know, but wanted to act bright.
Mitch? Yes, I think so, yes, that is surely right.
Thank you kindly the white cat said.
So saying she flounced off, with her loaf of bread.

Premium Member Ned Is a Notorious Liar

Bean bags are jumping on her head they said
I wondered what was going on, for it was Ned.
He is notoriously for saying things untrue.
He can make Granddaddy’s face turn red and blue

Whose head? I asked. Your head was the reply.
Now I knew it was nothing but a buzzard’s lie.
There is nothing jumping on my skull today.
So saying, I turned and flounced away.

Premium Member Orange Were the Dahlias

So tangerine apricot carrot colored and marmalade,
Blooms graced the garden of warm sunshine and shade.
Orange were rich dahlias where hummingbirds hummed,
With a rare beauty which left the daylight stunned!

Over with the blues, skies of chiffon clouds danced,
All of a summer, while huge marigold sun entranced!
Orange were the butterflies, searching for delights, 
Whereas flame robins flounced and sang day and night!

Premium Member Purple Haze

Purple haze,
Twilight days,
Beauty's hour,
Fresh flower!
Purple haze,
A dawn blaze,
Rosebud red,
Sleep in bed.
Show and tell,
Perfume smell.
Purple haze,
Sunset rays,
Blue jay trill,
Evening chill,
Butterflies,
Pink surprise!
Purple haze,
Sunrise glaze,
Blooming parks,
Beauty marks.
Misty mounts,
Color flounced!
Purple haze,
Valley ways,
Honeybee,
Sugar tree,
Hard to see,
Mystery.
Beauty world,
Breezes twirled,
Purple haze,
A hued phase.

A Gray Light Sparkles

Branches thatch a spackled sky.
Snow lays itself down
to sleep lightly.

An airborne coyote-itch addles
drops of sunlight
until they drizzle.

Splatters of graying-green
on the hairy chops of groundhogs
as they scrape up a scant buffet.

One Scarlet Cardinal bobs,
its ruby flounced headdress
scattering scads of frost.

Winter shucks its hoary hide,
stepping through a muddy mirage
of Spring.

Fanged winds pounce.
Puddles of rain return to ice.
