Mischief Maker – A Six Word Story
Renoir’s Intriguing Lady
Auguste Renoir Odalisque 1870, oil on canvas
Eyes piercing, flash gray
Lips, on the cusp of a smile
With secrets to tell.

For TJ’s Household Haiku Challenge: Choose a painting or sculpture for this week’s prompt. Recently while visiting the National Gallery of Art, I happened upon this painting by Renoir.
Once she had captivated me, I couldn’t look away. I imagined that she had quite a story to tell, but alas, she lounges suspended in colorful oil paint daubs on canvas for eternity intriguing passersby like me.

My crazy monkey brain!
Prone to incessant word churn.
So I write Haiku!

Magnolia Dawn
Photograph and Digital Enhancement by Kat Myrman 2016
but for the soft coo-cooing
wooing
of mourning dove cry
nigh
the earth is hushed
crushed
under a blanket of snow
glow
magnolia tree towers
flowers
roots burrowed deep
sleep
until spring’s first kiss
bliss.

An “Echo Verse” for Jane Dougherty’s weekly poetry challenge. The following describes this poetry form:
Echo verse goes back centuries but it has a very modern feel about it. The concept is simple—after each line there is an echo, of the last syllable (or two), or a word that rhymes. In the instructions it doesn’t say what the poem has to be about, line length, or whether there has to be any other kind of rhyme pattern.

Alien Oops
(For the sake of the reader, the following account has been translated into English)

“Earth Fleet Andromeda…come in Ensign Gorp, we’ve received reports of a re-entry error.”
“Perhaps we should have delayed Ensign Gorp’s solo mission, Admiral. It’s critical that he corrects this error before the earth cows get eaten by African lions. We may already be too late!”
“Come in Gorp! This is Admiral Zing. Gorp?”
“Yes sir, Ensign Gorp sir, reporting.”
“Gorp, your mission was to return the African Rhinos to Africa and the cows to the farm on the American continent.”
“Yes sir! I recorded it in Andromeda’s flight log. Cows to Africa…oops!”
“Gorp it is imperative that you remedy this error immediately!
“Yes sir. I’m on it, sir!”
Gorp laser-lifted the Rhinos from the farm and zipped at light speed to Africa. With the rhinos returned, Gorp descended into hover mode.
As he approached a small village he spotted the cows. They were adorned with bells and flower garlands. Earthlings were dancing wildly around them. Gorp employed the atomic strobes, temporarily blinding the earthlings, and extracted the cows.
Back on the farm Joe Dudley was doing his morning walk-about when he saw them.
“Minnie,” he yelled back to the house, “you’re gonna want to see this.”
