This side of me Day(24) Napowrimo

10 Replies

Up this morning feeling so good & happy

Thinking happy thoughts

Did a happy dance

Mixed in a little, raw sugar and Whip cream

Played all my happy records

Minded my own happy-bidness!

Sneezed a happy sneeze

Put on my best Springy-

Maxi-dress

Walked off my happy porch

And…

Lawd have Mercy!

A flat

Tire!

This is a play on a Poem by Jackie Earley “One Thousand Nine-Hundred & sixty-Eight Winters” It’s a favorite poem of mine.

Our prompt today (optional, as always), will hopefully provide you with a bit of Friday fun. Today, I challenge you to write a parody or satire based on a famous poem. It can be long or short, rhymed or not. But take a favorite (or unfavorite) poem of the past, and see if you can’t re-write it on humorous, mocking, or sharp-witted lines. You can use your poem to make fun of the original (in the vein of a parody), or turn the form and manner of the original into a vehicle for making points about something else (more of a satire – though the dividing lines get rather confused and thin at times).

Void Day (22) Happy Earth Day Napowrimo

If I look for yesterday, I won’t ever find him.

Certainly not while the sun has gathered her children.

If I thought about tomorrow,

I’d be paralysed looking out my rearview.

I thought about traveling. I’d go to Venus, I’m not sure why.

Rambling on, I must.

Mother, she has a way that moves me .

Just how do evergreens stay so true?

Just how are the flurries flying in April?

I am fond of the animals that eat their skin course,

I never want to meet them.

This Poem makes no sense

but it feels good to vent.

I had some issues with my blog site So you won’t find day 21 for Napowrimo, I have changed themes still trying to find a theme that works for me(free is good) Nevertheless all is well. Hey things happen. I’ve gotta make the best of it and laugh real hard… Feeling Alive ,happiness is all…Much love to all the writers/Poets/ and bloggers in WordPress…

Reboot me-back to happy

where sunshine grows on trees

and the people are missing teeth

dialing rhythms

connecting my journey far beyond suffering

thats where I wanna be…

Dangerously happy,

flying with fireflies

And fiery-winds,

Soaring above,Sun’s mindful speed

Beyond thee anchored

wine stained doors

pass that “Great Abyss”

If ever I could hold one prickly round star

but for a moment,

touch a holy-thing.

Be-Easy

Sometimes, I make life so complicated. Following the stream, makes me grow. Instead of banging my head against the river- bed. I am learning, just be-easy. It’s freaking-that simple, be-easy. Life is full of fun -surprises, and who doesn’t want to have fun!

When I look around and see, warm sunshine, green grass and the mud that makes little children dirty. I realize I’m okay, right here. This is the path that brings me laughter, that oh-ey gooey feelings, drizzling with chocolate and butterscotch ice cream. Okay, back to that thing happening in my life. I’m on “30 days of thankfulness” Just being easy with me and the rest will come.

No, I’m not always happy, I slip off into the why’s of life. Why did I leave the house with my house-shoes? Why are the kids so loud? Why is there a little flying nat, annoying the crap out of me? WHy , Why Why?

So these 30 days are stretching me, off my traditional rubber-band, paddling up stream.(i.e. fighting the waters like the dog that can’t swim)

I am learning to say “all is well ( or to hell with it -which ever works !).”
