Haiku – “The View From The Bridge”

#1
The view from the bridge
Masks fame in idolatry
Like yarn to a cat

#2
The view from the bridge
Sees fame’s mask as fresh fleeting,
A rambling yarn

#3
A heartwarming yarn
Bridges view of fleeting fame
To settle our masks

These are in response to Secret Keeper’s weekly challenge, based on five prompt words – FAME | VIEW | MASK | BRIDGE | YARN . Some great words this week 🙂 Check out the other entries here: http://thesecretkeeper.net/2015/10/19/weekly-writing-prompt-7/

OctPoWriMo #14: Edge of Tomorrow

Standing on the edge of tomorrow,
The future not yet set.
Closing my eyes and edging forward,
The best it’s gonna get

The whole world’s just a change away
From being something else
You’ve gotta let go of everything
But hang on to yourself

 

 

This is today’s contribution to OctPoWriMo – a challenge to write a poem a day during October. Today’s prompt was a bridge between today and tomorrow. I have to admit – these are more lyrics than a poem, in my head.

You can sign up here, at any time during the month, or just check out the prompts and tips if you prefer – http://www.octpowrimo.com/

Weekly Haiku Challenge – Bridge & Move

Two efforts from me this week for Ronovan’s latest haiku challenge… One serious, one humorous… Hope you enjoy!

#1
To bend in the breeze,
Breathe deep; maybe that’s the key
To bridge tomorrows

#2
Caught cheating at Bridge
Can’t look neighbours in the eye…
It’s time to move house!
