making close observations,
the rhymes in her head
on all that she sees and feels: 
no one can hear or read it

    Dreams of troubled people are troubled
       Those of calm people are calm

An Appeals Court

What appeals to circuit
Court up they need to perk it,
Now and never quit.

Watching news and writing poems
from observations is always interesting.

Used Up

Felt accused, so abused
Mistreated life, depleted
Violent line defined
Hystericaly speaking,
Can't start reliving
These observations eternal
Meaning the believing
Stops breathing heathen

Observations

Nature Wakes
Earth turns
Each day dawns anew
Memories enhance views

Time
Inexorably weathers and wethers 
 Why wonders
When  nears
Where changes wanderlust
Satisfaction soothes
Together triumphs

Premium Member Three sides to every story

There are three sides to every story
a trifecta of subjective observations
that warp over time and each time
the story changes a bit until you have
three completely different tales
that tell the story of one event

Observations

After breakfast, colorful dawn, everyflying gull happy in journey.
Knowledge luminates migration, Neptune's ocean pervails.
Quavering, raging, sparkling, thunderous, unquiet,
Visualizing waves.
XII younder zodiacs above.

Premium Member Observations of a Rat

don't spit on my tail please
said rat with a summer cold
never saw children like these
brassy and so bold.

don't spit on my tail please
said oldster rat, scurrying away
never saw people like these,
never having even one good day.

Working Woman

The little wren hen is in a fitful mood
From scurrying all day in search of food. 
The journey is dangerous in a world so rude
Yet she dares provide for her waiting brood.

GOSSAMER DREAMS

Asleep, breathing cheerful dreams ~ Ethereal fragility;
Gossamer hallucinations igniting jocund, kaleidoscopic luminescence;
Magical night-time observations, projecting quirky reflections;
Smoky tableau ushering versatile waves, x-rays yielding zenith.

Premium Member Kibitzer Kelly

Kibitzer Kelly is in everybody’s biz
She adds details, hoping for some extra fizz
Likes to spy on her neighbors all day long
Takes detailed notes, her observations strong
Writes down license plates of cars every hour
Snooping and spying is her superpower

Hieroglyphs and Holograms

Hieroglyphs etched upon rock walls
Leave clues for future observations.
Egyptian artists in ancient times
Told their stories in animations.

Holograms are recent constructions
That employ 3-D displays
On two dimensional surfaces,
On which its objects amaze.

Premium Member when I spot a squirrel

When I spot a squirrel
It is never common, ordinary or naked
They are usually fully dressed without a smile
The one I spied this morning wore a blue shirtwaist
When she ran up a tree, I saw white eyelet on her pantaloons
I wisely keep some of these observations to myself.
