#99 – Poems Stirred, Not Shaken
CONTAGION - A FOLD
The new one comes in bold strides of masks,
Laughing behind sneezers and coughs,
Wearing her name tag - contagion, tsk tsk
Without the least bit of apprehension,
The alien comes in bold strides of masks,
Her abhorrence of party loving earthlings,
Serious issue to blue jewel planet, a task;
The enormous size of her entire sphere,
Width and breath of her sultry masque,
Pandemonium her sibling, clutches the globe
Alas! she sauntered in, bold strides of masks.
Mars they say is the red planet, yet i have seen cartoon martians presented as green. Earth it is said is a blue jewel in the galactic planetscape, yet for all intents and purposes earth as we know the soil to be is brown. Tomatoes too are red, that is after they had been green and young. Perhaps a young martian is green.

#67: Feeling The Love
HAIR OF GOLD
About two years have passed between visits. I have grown accustomed to intervals of kindness, funny jokes which makes for laughter long and hearty ha ha ha-s. Longer still i have known him, hair a bronze kind of gold. In those days, for school children, hair colouring was unheard of, so yes that was his natural colour. But that was years ago.
We thought we had fallen in love, until we both married our destined spouses. We kept in touch by letter and card. That was the connecting way in those days. Until waning interest, put a comma there. Then the connections started again. This time there were visits since he had migrated. But always intervals of kindness and laughter.
NOTE: Today Kim is prompting at Dverse, she ask that we write a bit of prose not more than 144 words including the line "There are moments caught between heart-beats" taken from the poem Coda by Louis MacNeice
