The Dik-Dik's Dilemma
The Dik-Dik is an antelope
Who longs to be a misanthrope

But since he “pronks”, instead of lopes,
He doesn’t really have a hope …





* “Pronk” is the name of the dik-dik’s jaunty little bounce when he runs.
 It is an Afrikaans description....

Premium Member The Painter's Hand
Ablaze firmament
with captivating light blue...
a nacturnal's whim!
The luminous moon watches
the lonely pine on the hill
caressing a star;
while below, the quite town sleeps,
not seeing the painter's hand!


Inspired by von Gogh's painting," Nocturne " 
Entered in Abe's Lopes contest, " Vincent van Gogh's paintings "

Premium Member Gone of Course
Stupified I stare transfixed
The transmogrified beast stares at my mouth
He has my husband’s hazel eyes with gold flecks
He puts out his right claw. It is hoof like, gnarly.
I hesitate forty seconds too long
The beast flashes disappointment
With a howl he lopes off into the night.
I feel something hit me hard in the chest.
I gasp. My eyes flutter. I turn to look at my husband.
He is not there....

Premium Member Skiing
Slopes of light dry powder means a snowy week of fun -
Keeping very happy those who love to ski
In the moderately cold weather on a day when the sun
Is shining in the sky. Yes, on the slopes they’ll be -
Not inside their houses! With goggles, masks and helmets, they
Get going to their favorite spot geared up for snow-time play.
