“Colors”

Colors

Down the evening road, /

up the lavender mountains, /

sundown colors dreams.

Freedom of the wheels /

The Great American Dream /

Open road awaits.

“Purple cornflower”

Purple cornflower

Bachelor’s Button /

growing by the road, waving /

at passing ladies.

Haiku to you Thursday (and photo): “The Road Less Taken”

The road less taken /

Rattles like a bare spring tree /

Only lonelier.

Bare tree silhouetted against the sky.

Random Act of Poetry: “White Wing Road”

White Wing Road

The road sometimes traveled.

The road sometimes traveled.

O’ White Wing Road
I’ve been told
is a hard, hard road
to travel.

Take route 95,
it’s right before your eyes,
if you strive
and don’t prattle.

If you miss your turn —
cross the river of concern —
you might just learn
how to paddle.

When things go wrong,
ask for Wing O. Wang,
who will help you along
your channel.

O’ White Wing Road
I’ve been told
is a hard, hard road
to travel.

Take route 95,
it’s right before your eyes,
if you strive
and skedaddle.

–by David E. Booker

[Editor’s note: there is a road near where I live that is called White Wing Road. It is also known as route 95. It is a curvy road and it does cross a body of water.]

Haiku to you Thursday: “Bones”

Bones along the road /

speak of Passion’s empty end. /

Still, I long for you.

Monday morning writing joke: “Road well traveled”

1st person: Why did the author cross the road?

2nd person: I don’t know, why?

1st person: To catch the agent on the other side.

2nd person: Why did the agent cross the road?

1st: To catch the editor on the other side.

2nd: And why did the editor cross the road?

1st: To catch the publisher on the other side.

2nd: Okay, then why did the publisher cross the road?

1st: He was following the chicken.

And why did the writer cross the road?

And why did the writer cross the road?
