I've decided this will be ORIGINAL POETRY WEEK on my blog. I proclaim today Cinquain Day!
TIME-OUTS
If time-
outs are my time
to think things out, why then
do you come in and tell me what
to think?

WAITING
Sun-baked
beetle flails on
his back, waiting for the
curious puppy to wake up
and play.

See? Tink would have been jealous that you posted the perfect poem for Destructo, but not for her. And now...time outs. Fabulous.
Thanks, Jacqui.
Now I need a goat poem for Elise's goats....oh, but I wrote a wacky-funny goat pb instead and Ronnie just sent it out:)
I don't know why but Elise's goats inspire me.
I love reading your original poetry! And you know I love cinquains! Fun poems!
Kelly,
I was thinking of you when I posted these. I miss your cinquains:(
That time out poem is exactly how it is. I love it! Is this one already in a book of yours?
I never sent it out to publishers so....nope.
I have so many poems but finding the 'right' theme that will sell is a toughie. Plus, these days poetry collections seem doa.
Kathryn, I meant to add...thanks so much for the 'love it':)
Yeah!
More please!
Dave--you ask, I deliver. Hope you enjoy IMMERSED. (2/6/09)
Eek: your first poem made me blush: I do that to my kids all the time...
Mary....lol:) obviously I do too.
