Daily Florescence

there’s a lovely stillness
on this windless, cloudless
azure day, sun-fluoresced, frost-nipped air

For Jane Dougherty’s Daily Poem Challenge, a Florescence. And this, another look outside my window. The world just beyond the pane.

True Story a la Florescence

so, my facebook was hacked,
then suspended, in fact,
‘twas a phishing attack, spy bots blow! 🤬

~kat

For Jane Dougherty, a true story, regrettably, a la Florescence. I’m afraid I took the bait, having received a message from my grandson who I rarely hear from (first warning, disregarded), I was ever so eager to see what he had sent to me (hooked) only to find that my mistake sent an army of cloned messages to everyone on my friends’ list (so sorry) and finally the cruel chiding from Facebook…suspension. That was my Monday. I’m still reeling! 😫


Nectar Orbs

buttonbushes bloom
prickly, pale petal pins
hummingbirds to nip

Revelry

Revelry

those seeking control
would keep us quaking in fear
better to dictate
their demands, but here’s a spin…
let’s rollick instead, for spite

~kat

A Tanka for Colleen Chesebro’s Weekly Tanka Tuesday Poetry Challenge using synonyms of the prompt words: Command: control, dictate, demand, & Dance: revel, rollick, spin.
