She wished for a #prince
Day after day
She looked high and low
For her perfect guy
Hopeful and anxious
It seemed there was no way
Finally she gave up
Got a dog
And lived happily
Ever after
#thingstowriteabout
prince of thieves
throwing tantrums
to loud applause
#thingstowriteabout
What if the princess refuses every prince not because she's picky but because she's waiting for another princess (not necessarily on a white horse), who's also bored of the same old story all over again. And they lived happily ever after
For today's #thingstowriteabout prompt #prince, I probably can't do better than my poem "What if", published in Issue 44 of Shot Glass Journal in September 2024.
Emperor of no
Fixed abode, prince of nothing,
A lord of nowhere.

#Prince among men
known for his wisdom
his unyielding justice
his unwavering loyalty
a hero in the mists
of a forgotten time
others try to mimic him
invoke his mighty name
but they are pale imitations
of the real figure
who lived and breathed.

My bedtime stories were fairytales
brave prince atop his steed
what that did teach
most out of reach
albeit planted seed
~~
The handsome prince rides in so bold
from yonder castle I am told
and swoops the damsel to his fold
til I awake, my bed still cold

A figurine of the little prince sits next to a rose under glass and a small fox. A tiny plaque reads “once upon a time “.
Today’s prompt from the corner of the studio on a snowy Sunday March 15th is #prince #thingstowriteabout

I no longer wear
my wedding #ring
what is on my finger
is a band and a stone
which I have picked
for myself.

The bird call started at dawn. He lay in bed thinking it would make a good ring tone–if only pressing a button would stop it. #ThingsToWriteAbout
doorbell's broken
(won't ring), loud knocking's required
we don't make it easy
#thingstowriteabout (ring)
#senryu #micropoem
A #ring made of darkness,
a ring made of light,
a ring given for love,
hidden in sight,
a ring of power,
given in trust,
it stands as a promise,
written in stardust.

beyond all wars
it's so easy to find
blooming flowers

I Think His Name Was Sauron
I head a rumor once before
About a wicked king
Who tried to dominate them all
But not using THAT #ring.
THAT ring is too precious to me,
I simply don’t believe it.
In fact, I think I saw it fall…
Might you go and retrieve it?

I love flowers
could never understand
why she was aggitated by them
perhaps it is the gifter
more than the flowers
it always seemed
to be me
#thingstowriteabout
A beauty in wax to
Oil, paper and soil to
Creation, spoiled by
Education to be normal
Conform to a loss of
Petty dreams she knew
To hide as she grew to
Fit and belong, quietly
The paints dried grey
As dull now the flower
Wilted before the light
Could show her color
#thingstowriteabout
#flowers
#Inseparable my thighs once
#overworked the corduroy
#fight the tight
rub with might
til #porous & threadbare
could hear me comin' round the #corner
enter rebounder
bounce away the hours
no more junk food
instead I buy me #flowers

Not Again
If at first you didn’t succeed,
The second time you failed
Third try you couldn’t do the deed,
But found yourself impaled…
Please see the forest made of trees,
Take this bouquet of #flowers,
Relax, with my apologies…
We‘ll while away the hours.

are confused
whether it is
spring or
if it is still
the season
of snow
#thingstowriteabout #poetry #writing #writingcommunity
Just like I knew
the snow wouldn't
last forever, I knew
the sun wouldn't as well.
& now I'm sitting
watching #flowers in the rain...
(Happy Earworm! You're welcome! 😉)
#thingstowriteabout
happy flowers

A tiny Lego pot of flowers in front of a winter postcard that shows a rabbit in snow.
Almost forgot the prompt for Friday March 13th! On a day where I am in snow once more the prompt is #flowers #thingstowriteabout
diving
into six minutes of
musical perfection
shedding reality like
my work clothes
sadness and longing
wrapped in riffs and
epic chorals
as Freddie's voice
carries away doubt
I light a candle in
my heart and one
on my altar
for this lyrical genius
gone way to soon
