I know it is not Friday. It is Saturday. But all day yesterday I
was driving back from PA alone, and could neither post nor write. I did
write these two poems to go with Laura's 15 words or less
on Thursday with the picture of the empty bike rack. I was busy that
day too, so never got to put them on her site. And I'm kind of sick
today, so this is getting late in the day. It's hard to concentrate.
First thought was of why a bike rack would be empty in summer...
then fall..
Summer Bike Rack
Feet pumping
Heart thumping
Tangled hair
Without a care -
Empty rack
Till they're back!
Fall Bike Rack
Empty rack,
Winter's back!
Sled replaces,
Bike races;
Leaves swirling
No whirling
Wheels
And steel!
Well, let's see who's hosting today. I just have to hold it together for a few more minutes, and I'll have a post.
Okay, got it! Mary Lee Hahn is hosting the roundup at A Year of Reading. Please treat yourself to some tea and poetry today and all week!
Now I'm going to lie down.

I'm glad you made it home and shared your poems. I meant to check in with the 15 words or less post, but the day got away from me. I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteDonna! Wafting warm North Florida breezes directly to you, with wishes for soothing teas or whatever your healing beverage is. Appreciations for checking in with Poetry Friday. Hopes for fast healing.
ReplyDeleteNow onto the poems, they are fun & you are a whirling wheeler to write & post whilst battling the ick.
Feel Better. The poems are fun.
