Day 25-Poet’s Billow Challenge: Solving the puzzle

Today’s prompt is to try a mash-up of lines from  24 poems. Using the poems I’ve written this month, I’ve created  a new poem using a line from each poem. I’ve chosen to select the lines randomly and was left with about five words that I couldn’t place.

Imagination

borrowed extended wings,

flashing, racing, sprinting, mounting,

to chase freedom

in all its forms,

on his canvas-confessional.

I recalled the princess and the toad…

I searched for you

the other half of my soul,

You knew-

It was not ever my intention,

but the scenery has changed,

significantly now.

Kindred spirits hold me captive in words

reminded me-

that pleasure can be found,

felt the floating feeling.

Nothing was impossible if we imagined it!

Take me out of my dark hiding place

to virtual worlds!

With tremulous lips, I touched your mouth

I savoured it, lingered over it.

Come closer,

feel the attraction

through that magical click of mind,

take my breath away!

Perhaps it is time-

to redeem ourselves.

How could we?

Stubbing my cigarette

I sigh-

I don’t think you’ve changed your view…

the mirror has two facesc’est la vie!

Day 24-Poet’s Billow challenge: I apologize…

Very aptly so – this challenge asks us to write a poem of apology.

I’m so sorry for being impolite-

for not eating all you dished out,

especially the decadent humble pie,

served frozen-cold on a paper plate.

I regret that you felt so shadowed-

when I stood up to my full height.

It was not ever my intention

to make you feel so infinitismal!

I’m ashamed of my awful behavior-

for trying to soothe and placate you,

when you were frothing at the mouth-

your rage- spluttering shamelessly out!

Oh how I must unreservedly repent-

for standing in your pathway,

blocking out your rose-colored view,

if only you could and would have seen it!

Above all I am  mournful as I weep-

when I think of the disassembling souls,

convulsively, trembling and shuddering,

when your tornado spirals violently in.
