When' s the last time
You lost a dime
Wrote a poem that didn't rhyme
Bought from the market a green lime
And swallowed whole a window chime.
Pray tell when' s the last time

Mosaic Monday # 143: Up Up And Away
AND
Prosey - Clouds
PROVIDENCE
Who am i to question morning sunlight creeping in on a silvery wand of another day's dawning?
And what am i doing dousing the dew on the wildflowers with wet awestruck gasps?
Later, as the azure angels wring out
their weather won raindrops, to tee shirts waving in slight breezes from wooden clothes pin clips
I sigh, waiting for rainbow colors to arc across and i make a wish for today's providence to bless us all.
But these clouds are clearly foreign, such an exotic clutter against the blue cloth of the sky, i muse.

STAND : A Quadrille
Perfect handstands are expected
Of you doyennes advanced enough

Noisy and charcoal
On stormy days
Who wants to go to a hell
If there's a heaven sublime
Waiting and rewarding
Kindness
always stands
on tired legs

Mosaic Monday #141: Short and Sweet
AND
August in T&T, begins with celebration of freedom; freedom from the chains of chattel awareness, freedom to claim the dignity and status of all mankind - human.
With drum songs and dancing feet, flambeau and Canboulay flames lighting the paths of future days.
A public festival of pre Covid19 eras halts today to the tune of Lockdown season and curfew hours. The feasting and festivity is tamed to family stay home numbers.

Days progress to weeks of August. Heads cool to swell with pride of nationhood; as Trinidad and Tobago ends August on the note of Happy Independence.

Mosaic Monday: #140: Lost for Words
AND
REFLECTION
She stops to drink,
Her animal tongue lapping the sweetness
Of clear running water,
Thirsty after a lively tryst with her sibling cubs,
She knows nothing of reflection,
Sated, she stops,
peering into the likeness,
Stream of consciousness
weaves a tale of a sibling.

CHANT
Charcoal coloured clouds at dawn
[Chant] for morning azure breezes
Sunrise to new morning
[Chant] for a new day
Rosary beads like jewels roll
[Chant] for a world of peace
Arms up-stretched skyward
[Chant] for prana, breath. life
What's up? What's App
[Chant] for a smile, smile for today
Eerie pandemic quiet hours
[Chant] for V: vaccines our victory
News of deaths and hospitals filled
[Chant] for hope for healing futures
Wash your hands wear your masks
[Chant] for a chance to win
Bird songs and setting sun
[Chant] for sweet dreams this night
For tis hope, it hurls us forward
[Chant] for wisdom and tomorrow.
