Laomedeia (Neptune)
I am once and always
my sisters' moon -
a solar sibling
to Halimede and Sao,
in jagged orbit around
Neptune -
we harmonize
in frequencies
only we understand,
a gift from birth,
broken as we were,
asteroid pieces
of a Nereid's tune

Lear wrote with nonsense and joy
he played with his words like a toy
he'd bounce on a rhyme
in a sing-song-y time
to the amusement of the girls and boys
for #ds106
Arranging a day as a game
Moving pieces – it's never the same
with a roll of the die
the time will fly
and in the morning, we'll start up again
for #ds106 and #mastoprompt
I'm lost once again
in your brush strokes of art and
imagination
for Simon

Sunlight smiles
between the spaces
where shadow
memory
still slumbers

The color of wind
depends upon the daylight,
bent in fractured light
for #ds106
inspired by Koan: “What is the colour of wind?”
From a distance, the drummers
pound out an invitation to join
with danceable, rhythmic beats
We're caught up in street songs,
our voices, on city walls, echo
turning into something sweet
A Golden Shovel poem, for #ds106, inspired by Sheri Edward's poem: Dance Your Heart Out via https://askwhatelse.blog/2022/08/29/dance-your-heart-out-daily-create/
A tribe called (it) quest -
built inside beats, listened best
with headphones on, up too loud,
ear-worm samples and word play:
urban music getaway
a tanka for #mastoprompt and #ds106
Gracious thankfulness:
for all who find ways to play
and collaborate
for #ds106 and #clmooc
I told myself,
well, it could wait -
and so I did, and so it did,
and now, of course,
the moment's late,
the thread's now lost
to attention and time,
and the poem I thought
I might have wrote
has gone and lost its mind
for #ds106
