Bolero

Magpie Tales  offers an image for its weekly prompt - follow the link to view this week's image and to write along!




Bolero

one flippant fish
swims to Bolero
in a time-worn rite

partners to a lure
of the painted lady
reaching out to other

fluid tangling
at the edge of space
bubbles into light

its watery nebula
flash frozen
in a single globe

unaware
Bolero loops
again and again

O for ABC Wednesday

ABC WEDNESDAY ROUND 6: O


Online or Offline

About three weeks ago, the local ISP I used disappeared into the night like leftover fog. It took time to disentangle and find a replacement. And it will be another few days before I get caught up.

In the meantime, I was forced to flip through the flimsy phone book pages printed in size 3 font and search the dictionary with print too small for sight and too flat for Braille.

It's amazing how much I store in the clouds and how much time I spend reading and writing blogs, reading and sharing news and admiring photos from far away places.

Like a spider, I feel better when hanging with the web!  :) Do you?

Temporary for Magpie Tales

Magpie Tales offers an image for a weekly prompt. The image is viewable on the Magpie site.


Temporary


it was a walking aid
and only that
not a ball and chain
not an excuse
it was a walking aid
and only that

she leaned
feared to give it up
it became her excuse
her ball and chain
her support and her staff
...a stick that stifled life

Haiku for OSI

One Single Impression: Prompt 113: Fissures






first humpback moon skirts
wide-eyed fissures spun on land                         
black and light dance on
