5/6

...care of it.

The aspen heart lands the instant the first drop of blood hits the floor.

Sunflower surprise,
Greeted by happy yellow
Heads, stretching petals.

Your emotions have Tangled
As you help your child Become their own Person
Joy and pride Over accomplishments
Regret that things are changing

At last I found my lonely #island,
in a quite corner of the library,
by the window, hidden behind
the economy books, where even
I wouldn't normally go.
There's just enough room for me
& you, Miss Friday, & some
rambler #roses peeking
through the window.

Alluring aria of luring temptress
echoes within the damned island,
her fatal kiss seals depraved spirits fate
vindictive foxes devour their bloodied flesh,
mournful sable roses
lie across ruined cemetries
writing elegies in tandem

Tension’s dam breaks as I whisk myself away to a distant island where wet sand molds between my toes. Relaxation, laughter, and roses turn moldy brown when the boss asserts the no day-dreaming policy and subject of my return to work.

Too Particular?

A reader #asserted on Threads:
An author shouldn’t “smell,”
That this distracts her from a scene
Otherwise written well.

Re: this #subject, I must confess:
I haven’t got a clue
If I stop near some #roses, now,
What I’m supposed to DO?

For you, an open wound
these words, secret #roses
bleeding red devotion

#She #counted #the #bells
on the faded papered walls
a #different #light #sailed #over the hall
cloaked in her matted #fur
a house cold as ice
she had run out of #funds
so her #snack was plain #rice

Memory fragment::The War of the #Roses, played out by two mathematicians. One of them is dead now, 'before his time' as they say. The other one might be too, by now. A work dinner, I was there as a plus one. Some discussion. "So says the man from Ilkley". Something dismissed.

Paper poppies–a gift of love–burned in the blood red flames of his passion. She put the ashes on her #roses. #ThingsToWriteAbout

I wish I had
a pot of small roses
on my windowsill

So I went out
and bought my
own flowers

Instead of waiting
for him to remember
our anniversary

Crimson sunset spills
over the sombre lakeside,
a weeping willow bends
its branches lightly brushing
the drooping poppies,
fallen leaves cover the paths
weary lone leaf withers
sails downstream in despair
time moves indifferent.

A pattern strikes where every shadow whispers doubt in my ear. I must clean the fur, yet a hurricane of incertitude cripples me over and over. Seventy is too loud, but sixty isn’t enough. Back and forth, which volume to choose?
