Instead of the usual quotes, today’s blog is to give a nod to the delightfully creative woman, Sandy Ackers. This is the second poem I have posted that came directly from one of her creative inspirations. You don’t need to have writer’s block to benefit from her “creative bursts”. Just accept the challenge and enjoy the ride. You can find Sandy at Strangling My Muse or http://stranglingmymuse.wordpress.com Come play in the sandbox!
Pied fâchés
Once again
Came the argument
First there were
The whimpering
Complaints
But as always
They grew louder
You hate that
I have imprisoned
You
In those heavy boots
Thick socks
As we walk
The beautiful hills
That surrounds us
You don’t believe
I do it to protect you
From all the stones
And other detritus
You beg and plead
For sandals
Or total exposure
As always
I make sweet promises
To coax you onward
Afternoon
Having your way with
warm sand
seductively massaging
Prelude to full pardon
Revival at
Sea
Bisous,
Léa
