The Static Squirrel

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com

A garden table

surrounded by red flowers

sits a squirrel

he is not a coward

A recent rain

has caused static electricity

each raindrop is charged

unique in its simplicity

On the table

static electricity flows

a squirrel’s hair stands upright

his determination grows

The hilarious site continues

as the squirrel grabs for the bowl

the shock continues

as he searches for a hole

Booty gathered

a tunnel is near

his cheeks are full

some on the ears

Recovering from the shock

therefore unable to play

he runs through the tunnel

seeking safety for the day

High in a tree

safe in his nest

stomach is now full

eyes closed as he rests

Waking up

willing to do it again

prize is worth the shock

smiling with a grin

An Experiment

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com

Sitting high upon the rock

the mighty lion roared

it was time to confer a title

he was so adored

The animals waited

as a hippopotamus appeared

stepping forward brandishing his teeth

the lion showed no fear

On this birthday

the hippo joined the pack

having fought with the lion in battle

together they had won the attack

The day has come

spoke the lion

the kingdom will live in peace

there will be no denying

The title of prince

was spread across the land

no one crossed the hippo

his reign was quite grand

The lion

retired to his den

there was a great celebration

the treaty a win

After the lion and hippo died

each species broke the peace

carnage is everywhere

each member had a feast

The land is dark

evil is everywhere

the battle continues

no life is spared

Another day is coming

peace will have another try

when the darkness has lifted

and the sun is in the sky

Meditation in the Air

Photo by Meru Bi on Pexels.com

High above the ground

in a hot air balloon

freedom to move about

there is so much room

The sky is clear

cool air invisible to me

patterns on the ground

calm as can be

The landscape changes

variables at every turn

from desert to mountains

so much to learn

Floating along

a mist fills the air

suddenly its raining

beauty without care

Coming down

caught up in a cloud

a sudden roar

the thunder is loud

Beginning to land

one last look around

calmness has taken over

sunshine has been found

Walking away

into the sunset

floating in the sky

a memory to be kept

The Evil Knight

Photo by Maria Pop on Pexels.com

He rode down the path

outre in his clothes

insolent in his manner

without consult did he impose

Striking fear

taking knowledge away

burning everything in sight

his heart has gone astray

In a small village

he encounters resistance

the battle rages on

the people are insistent

The knight is baffled

how dare they not bow down

he is superior

demanding the crown

The battle continues

till the people win the day

the knight has been defeated

the body thrown away

The knight’s spirit

returns back to whence it came

the evil has been defeated

things will never be the same

There is a great celebration

feasting and dancing into the night

a new age of freedom

life filled with delight

Whispers over Coffee

Flitting in the park

it begins with a phrase

he is quite smitten

she is amazed

Like a young lad

doing things to showoff

causing her to laugh

true love not far – off

An intimate encounter

a whisper in the ear

an answer to a proposal

the wedding is near

A blissful morning

filled with laughter and cheer

now they are newlyweds

the future is clear

One morning

a whisper about something new

joyful glad tidings

a baby is due

Years pass

the couple is now old

happiness spread through whispers

the love and coffee are never cold

Sailing in a Storm

Photo by Matheus Guimaru00e3es on Pexels.com

A sailboat dead in the water

the yard was broken

storm clouds rapidly approaching

was this an omen

A stoic sailor is at the helm

quickly grabbing the sail

sanguine about the repair

praying it will go well

Rain begins to fall

there is thunder and lightening

the boat rocks back and forth

the passenger is frightened

The sailor works quickly

makes the repair

quickly heading toward the coast

taking great care

The storm calms

the sailor and passenger are safe

thankful for safe harbor

and God’s grace

Spring is in the Air

Photo by Oleg Magni on Pexels.com

Blossoms shoot forth

an introduction to spring

the moratorium to awaken has ended

the birds begin to sing

Warmth embracing the land

wildlife ending its slumber

a time of renewal

flowers increasing in number

The streams begin to flow

meager at first

the sun melting the ice

water beginning to burst

A forest filled with trees

pastel colors abound

small promises of fruit

beauty all around

The sky is blue

not a cloud to be seen

nothing is awry

the sun is beaming

The world is awake

spring has arrived

my soul jumps for joy

happy to be alive

The Vapor

Photo by Rafael Guajardo on Pexels.com

Vibrant blue colors emerged

a memory of halcyon days

sweet smells from vapor

as the color begins to sway

Acceptance of life like a lamb

relaxing in the warm breeze

never any worries

a life filled with ease

Floating higher

the mist begins to grow

rain comes forth

there are many things to know

Staunch walls are formed

innocence is put away

opinions are formed

everything is gray

The vapor is swirling

is anything real

illusions consuming it all

thief trying to steal

The vapor fades

close to the end

is there hope

can the vapor bend

Out of the shadows

vapor in transition

emerging in another realm

new life in another dimension

Vapor is now an ocean

filled with abundance

applying lessons learned

enjoying a new life of substance

A Spring Shower

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com

The spring shower

casting raindrops on a leaf

serendipity for the surrounding life

giving much needed relief

Repeating patterns

contrary to the ice

a piece of art

actually quite nice

The fallout

causes life to grow

trees, grass, and flowers

create a summer glow

The spring shower is over

rain drops continue their cascade

some create a waterfall

a new stream is made

Repeating rain patterns

working together

the land is bountiful

what could be better

The Pier

Photo by Simon Migaj on Pexels.com

In a secluded place

I have found my retreat

on this pier

water on my feet

In the brevity of the day

contemplating my thoughts

away from the world

what lessons are taught

Dangling my pole

out of the water jumps a fish

making a perfect circle

I make a wish

A theme for life

how much fun it would be

if there was a plan

specifically for me

Surrounded by the mountains

each day carries new life

a unique adventure

sometimes filled with strife

Things planned out

that would be so easy

nothing would go wrong

never a thought of being crazy

But for me

that would not be fun

must feel the soil

freedom to run

Excitement each day

a new adventure to happen

joy in my heart

each day a new passion

Picking up my pole

turning to leave

fish continue to jump in the water

I can finally breathe
