FRAGMENTS OF POETRY'S POEMS AND SCORES #3

Lap 22 - round 12 - 7 lines

If love had a thousand faces
It would be my fears
Like when I jump
a ten feet high
on a house haunted ride
sinister and forbidding
but mostly fun.

Lap 22 - round 13 - magic

A spell is cast upon us
by heroines of Greece.
Maidens of distress
are now locked in the past,
as we apply the newest
cherry lipgloss
upon our shields,
and enter the battlefield
against witches
that lock
our knights of distress.

Lap 23~Round 1~Grandmothers

Hardworking and loving
Wisdom to share
Old school by standards
None can compare

No heart could be purer
Nor words be more kind
Your grandmother loves you
As though she were blind

Lap 23 - Round 2 - 17 syllables

here we go again
another hectic day
has gone
nothing could
stop and beat
FOP now

Lap 23 - round 3 - aabba

Dictionaries are books of lies
their definition of love is certainly not wise
And since when does mellow not go with traumatic
I know that Hannah Fury is more idiomatic
So dictionary, stop giving me advice

Lap 23~Round 4~Free

You were so small once
You needed me
More than anything I needed you
And now times are changing

You've grown so much
You're practically a woman
Before I know it you will be gone
Living and learning your own lessons

I hope you always need me
Maybe not to tuck you in
Or sing you a lullaby
But to share in your joys and sorrows

Lap 23 - Round 5 - Squirrel

drinking my coffee
in one fine afternoon

something had caught my eye
on a branch of maple tree

a loud scream
was heard

a massive squirrel
has just jumped on in my lap

Lap 23 - round 6 - wild card

I woke up in a maid's body today:
vacuumed my dreams
because the fairies had jumped in
throwing buckets
of happiness across the floor,
and perfumed my room
with the scent of nightmares
for too many roses and lilys
dropped from those
tiny skirts.

Lap 23- Round 7- Insects

When a butterfly flew past me,
I saw it's amazing colors.
Wishing for wings,
and stunning patterns,
I saw myself,
as a beautiful butterfly.

Lap 23 - Round 8 - Acrostic

Like a stubborn mushroom
Under the palm of my hand
Never the kind of girl to surrender
At least for a while.

Lap 23 - round 9 - superhero/mythological/movie star

Inside a maple tree,
aside the pearling waters -
a hamadryad sleeps against her trunk.
Wrapped in a damsel's beauty,
her pale skin is lit
by the crescent's silver beams,
as an icy wind flirts
with her amaranth hair, unfurling
the night and her dreams.

Lap 23- Round 10- Cooking

The Sour Taste of Pain.

The smell of fresh bread
Wafted through my,
Antique kitchen.

Bubbles rising to
The top of my,
Stainless Steel pot.

My way out of the
Abusive things,
I come home too.

Lap 23 - Round 11 - Nature

Blushing ground beneath
the scented air
Foliage on the rise
while naturally refined
Painless laughter
of midnight jaunt

'tis a beautiful visage
of Autumn
in my heart.

Lap 23 - round 12 - seven lines

A man once compared me
to a diamond in search for a craftsman
in order to make a necklace.
He didn't know, that jewellery
didn't fit my pants and bright red cap,
and so I told him that nothing that glimmers
will ever adorn my tomboy outfit, until marriage.

Lap 24- Round 13- magic

I brew a specific type,
Of evil,
In my black pot.

Wooden spoons,
Do sway,
In my magic liquid.

..Yes.
I am an evil witch.

Lap 24 - Round 1 - Grandmothers

Angels may come
on a form of human

with hair like that of
Papa Smurf

forget about the beard
for my granny

is a real class.

Lap 24 - round 2 - 21 syllables

My reflection
turns its back
against the mirror

Am I a vampire?

Lap 24- Round 3- Aabba Rhyme

I knew this would be fun,
That hopefully we would be number one.
It doesn't matter if we lose,
We've got to hurry and find a muse,
But we already won.

Lap 24 - Round 4 - Free

Sometimes, I wonder
how seashells could mimick
the music of
the rolling sea

for when I put them
to my ear,
I hear wails

of mermaids

as if giving birth
to a new sea creature.

Lap 24 - round 5 - squirrel

I wonder where pickpockets
squirrel their christmas shoppings,
they must have huge jackets
with all iPhones and Blackberries
but the children must not worry
for Santa wears the biggest
and thickest jacket
of the world.
