Poetic Asides Days 18 & 19

Day 18  a weather poem

Easter - combined effort with NaPoWriMo prompt

It rained of course:

without force

a day of mourning

and remorse.

So Friday’s dawning

a timely warning -

but rejoice the source

on Sunday morning!

Day 19  a colour

Coral

Having unravelled my attachment

to a quirky gift – another basket

crafted from local twisted spike reed –

I took my budget and intention -

to play the game - to Myers’ Gift Registry.

It was the word: coral: that caught

my attention, and the medium: cotton

which claimed my willingness

to search among the ‘throws’

available for thirty percent off.

And there it was: striped with cream

ready to casually drape a back

of lounge or rocker, or to wrap

or swaddle … oops! that attachment

set aside too. Let’s get the wedding over!
