Q is for Qualt and Quaint

It's Q day!

It is National Poetry Month, so I am posting a poem a day as I participate in the AtoZ writing challenge.  I will be writing ekphrastic poetry (a poem that was written with inspiration from an image) using a randomly generated image with a randomly generated FAKE word all this month.  

I am using the site: https://randomwordgenerator.com to get both a fake word and random image for the day.  Here's today's image and poem using the FAKE word "qualt":

Quaint Tin

It's a happy day

in Tinny Land

where by the garden

path we stand.

The fishing's good;

the geese are fed.

We've metal caps

to shade our heads.

We're free to be

In freshest air

Without a qualt,

Without a care,

Just smiling up

At rain and sun

To thank the Lord

each day's begun.

There's no amount 

Of fear or dread

When all your veins

Are made of lead.
