Can I Help?

“I understand you are writing cards… May I be of assistance?
I’m especially good at sitting in boxes, on top of the cards you need… Keeping them warm, you know, like a chicken on eggs…. Hmmmm chicken,

yum!”

Ronovan’s Weekly Haiku Challenge #75 – Charm & Look

 

haiku-challenge-image.pngMonday is Ronovan’s Weekly Haiku Challenge, and last night I was so busy wrapping gifts for kids teachers and writing Christmas cards, I was unable to post my entry.  So here it is, on a Tuesday morning instead!

Oh he has raised the bar again this week, has Ron! Yes, you can do your usual haiku using the prompt words, Look & Charm, but the added challenge is to have the haiku with opposing sentences. So the first be a positive and a second a negative… or something like that!

And another extra, try and write a Freku… this consists of free verse, and a traditional haiku that ties the whole feel of the verse in 3 lines.

PHEW!

Check his challenge out here.

Ok, So I have had a go. Let’s see whether I actually got this right, or whether I should stick to what I know!

Gent Cad

Unaware, I fell for you
And all that you did say
How did you beguile me so
And trick me in such a way?

I thought we were together
Like one, forever more
I gave my love, my heart to you
Then you walked right out the door

Broken now, I stand here
Feeling used and so unpure
I gave my innocence to you
All that talk was just a lure

———

Looking like a gent
You blinded me with your charms
Like a proper cad

Spidey’s Serene Sunday – Part 44

image

The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.

– James Allen

I’ve had a crazy few months, and this weekend itself has been mega hard work. Yer, so far, I’ve not committed any murders in frustration, or,any other crimes! So maybe it’s right to stay tranquil… I shall definitely keep trying… Will you?

Chill Peeps! Happy Sunday!

Ironing…

image

It keeps on growing,
My huge pile of ironing
Is neverending…

As if I didn’t have enough on with sleepovers and sick kids, and running on empty…
There was a huge pile of ironing staring at me!
So armed with water to refill the iron, and The X-Factor final to keep me company I managed to tackle it!
Phew!
So, theoretically, tomorrow, I just have an early run to take the boys to a football match, and mend my daughter, not forgetting to bake some cookies … I might be able to squeeze a nap in too!
😯:?:)
