Simple Inspiration

Simple Inspiration

I’ll verify a dozen ways that  I’m in the pink,
but I’m not as together as some folks may think.
The course I plod is littered by words I’ve thrown away,
hoping that I’ll come across some better ones some day.

I use no means nefarious to prod words into being.
My syllabic yield is rather based on what I’m seeing.
And so I am a plagiarist of wind and rain and flowers,
recording what is sweet in life and also much that sours.

 

 

Prompt words today are nefarious, yield, course, verify, dozen and pink.

    We are none of us quite as “in the pink” as we say we are. One of the great things about blogging is that you can be the blogger you promote rather than the crumbly old person you may otherwise be. Or maybe I’m just a bit crumbly.
