carry on tuesday no 29: this is the saddest story i have ever heard. This week our prompt is the opening line of  The Good Soldier by Ford Madox. Ford, 1915

sipping silence
in the midst of
a blinding glare

a sudden cough
erupted the news

stealing tomorrow
the unknown end
their last breath taken

who could know
today was terminal

this is the saddest story i have ever heard.

monday poetry train revisited no 56

night stirs the stillness
cool wind canters
waiting siren yields

embrace the deluge
surrounded by desert
where does the tide conceive

inaudible noise captures a note
beyond the winter tempest
uncharted wanderings

waiting on the corner
dreaming of salvation
she misses her bus

3 word wednesday: give, thanks, obvious

celebration flames
the candle of remembrance
glimmering soiree

harmony surrounds
talkative table of twelve
silverware sleeping

harmless happiness
mash potato companion
perfect gravy pours

give the gift of thanks
obvious oblivion
pass the stuffing please

pumpkin pecan pie
another cup of comfort
don’t forget the cream
