Armoured animal wearing a
Striped suit of
Polychromatic cloth is a
Fright to me and
Disturbed my day
Acrostic
(I figured this was a fitting strange animal that would fit right in with October since it’s Halloween month)

I’ve been Plum tired,
And at times Plum tuckered,
But Plum crazy I’m not

A bit of humor in my poem today. 😊
Seeing this plum tree while on my walk a few days ago caused me to remember some old phrases my dad used to say when I was a kid.
Gardens of the World
Members of the Plant Kingdom
Bloom where you are
Haiku
Haiku Horizons Weekly Challenge Week #221 Prompt: Plant
(Based on the quote, “bloom where you are planted.” By The Bishop of Geneva, Saint Francis de Sales (1567-1622) and made popular by Mary Engelbreit)

Birds of every color

I see the look of the musician,
I think he’s angry at the omission.
He finds it hard to comprehend
Overshadowing the note’s loose end
Causing a chirping like a flamingo
Creating a strange and quirky lingo.
Spoken badly by the blues singer,
Please don’t let this composition linger
Music and song need thought and time
Senses suffer in nonsense rhyme

( I found an online Poem Generator that I decided to try out today. It had me type in nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc and then it generates what is supposed to be a poem! 🙂 haha. However, I took what seemed to me to be complete nonsense and rewrote it to at least, perhaps, have some meaning. 🙂
Any thoughts? What do you think? Does it make any sense or is it just nonsense?
Can you take me to town before 3
I really need to talk to PCC
I’m off work at 1 and need a ride you see
Please, don’t forget about me
Have you made those phone calls yet
Sponsors for the Show I need to get
Hope your schedule’s not too tight
We need our new art posted to the site
Have you written that book review
Remember, in just a few days it’s due
Discussion post Thursday deadline
Read lecture and write, no time to whine
Internet shut down, call put on hold
Need a new password I am told
Housework and sleep will just have to wait
So many hats to wear, can’t be late
Time is running, and I am too
Some days there’s just too much to do!
Rhyme
Today, we’d like to challenge you to write a poem of simultaneity – in which multiple things are happing at once.
I keep no secrets
My life is an open book
Nothing you’ll uncover
Not a thing you will discover
In cranny and nook
There’s not a hidden thing
That a “ah ha” will bring
Very transparent am I
And I never ever lie

Looking out my patio window just now I saw so many different birds visiting my yard eating the birdseed I had put out. Previous to today there had been only a flock of Chickadees and occasionally a robin but today many different kinds descended at once together! It seemed as if someone had created a flyer advertising a free lunch in my yard! That thought inspired today’s poem 🙂
Madame de Pompadour
Her hair couldnt fit thru the door
So she sat outside instead
Til birds nested in her head
And caused a great uproar
Limerick
A gardener named Rosy
Often dreamed to mosey
Down an isle strewn in petals
But she wasn’t a gal who settles
For just one posy
Limerick
