M was too fat fromfries and malts not to start an
earthquake with a waltz.
Super powers andNatural disasters would
improve dancing shows
Belly, Zack and M
all went to watch a Dancing
Show to learn the art?

At the Gypsy’s StageA mug of mead, a
post oak’s shade, the moaning sound
of a large bronze bell . . .
I’m laughing at Belly’s #4503! It wasn’t on my screen when I posted.
He'd rather strangle
himself than learn how to dance.
Poor pink,permed-lashed toad.
* Kindly disregard now hahaha

Lol! Thank you Belly, I was trying to follow your hilarious haiku.
Belly wrote: "amphibian librarian

The Idol of the Gold Fly
and gets nine lashes"

You are all doing such an amazing job - I would buy this thread if I saw it published! I have no idea how you are able to write so well so quickly. Each time I think I have a semi-decent continuation, the thread has 3 or 4 more posts... Lucky it's so enjoyable just to read ;)
Then Ryan joined in,
he knew how to waltz, but all
three little pigs found it
abhorrent. The nine-permed-lashed
toad was sad and felt hopeless.

what the cat lashed in
The cat-o-nine tells
tales of thrashed toads toadying
up to fly fishers.
The flies were hard to swallow
but not as hard as the tales.
A writer, fishing,caught a whale and found his nose
in a piece of tale.
Ryan, that’s a spectacular profile photo!
Nice, M :)
A tale, a sign to
sail, through image into words.
A flurry of thoughts.
Good morning from here :)

It’s getting dark here. Good morning, Leslie!The flurry soon turned
into a blizzard. Nothing
but white could be seen.
I hadn’t paid the
insurance lizard, couldn’t
drive to Dairy Queen.
Argh! Dairy Queen, I've been thinking about it since last weekend.
A world of cookies,
mallows, vanilla and
ice cream, I'm craving.

Belly!! Lol! You're such an amazing writer/poet that it will be hard for me to wipe the image out of my head.
No ice, not cockroach.

The titles are brilliant, can I borrow your mind, for a day? :D
Ants as big as rice?
A mutated colony
lost. The queen is dead.

I can't do this, I can't even think of a decent title :)

If I can, I will
collect tiny parts of your
talents; it won't hurt.
But I can only
be awed; give an applause. I'm
lucky to be here.

To find a talent once lost.
Why wasn't it mine?

Let it slip, let it
fade. Hidden, forgotten, lost.
All because of fear.

Jim and M - congratulations on your Poetry! nominations and best of luck :)
Thanks, Ryan! The Goodreads population chose the road more traveled though. Hahaha!
Wow, congratulations and goodluck, Jim and M :)
I’m laughing at Jim’s “road more traveled.” I’m the road least traveled!I’ve got it bad, the
writer’s block blues. Muse didn’t
pay her union dues.
I’ve yawned, verbally
constipated, tapped my pen,
doodled, and waited.
but it's still nice, M :)
I've got nothing haha too much Ice Age 3.

Good evening to me, you woke up early?
and waited until
the sun came up, until it
went down, but nothing.

(I get up about 4:30.)Her mornings were pale
watercolors, her evenings
fused glass on copper.
She popped colors at
the sky, to add warmth to her
unlively morning.

I wanted to stand beneath
the rise and the fall

perceived by the quirk of I.
@ 4545 - I love this one, M. Stunning.
Ryan, thank you!The tanka posted last night were so spectacular, I was at a loss for commentary when I read them this morning.
Those were wonderful Guy, Belly and Ellis :))
Signs of Medieval Times
The Knights, guarding the
castle; Princess, doing the
needlework; Noble
Steed, galloping, while the King
is reading the Game of Thrones.
Good morning :) It's Friday, yey! and I'm silly.

Till ’72I lived in Ceylon, writing
haiku and living
on Sanka. Those days are gone.
Now I live in Sri Lanka.
Beads, pins and needles;
wires, threads and polymer clay,
hidden in the chest.
I traded them all for what
I love doing best-writing.

Thank you, Ellis!Leslie, writing may be what I love doing best. You’ve given me something to consider.
Hmm, I'm glad to have done that? :) For someone who has such a great talent in writing, I can't believe you haven't considered that yet.
Such encouragement will get you everywhere! Did you need dishes washed, floors swept?
Lol! Hmm, let me see..
Can you watch over the kids? A 7-year old boy and a 3-year old girl, who's feigning innocence all the time? :)
Goodnight, M! :P

Belly, that’s perfect! Along with “hollywood loves musclemen,” it’s one of my favorites that you’ve posted.
