Snowflakes – Sunflower

snowflakes tumble

covering the world in white noise

east meets west

white frozen florets -

farmers field held many a

heliotrope face

just a few miles away so warm

that was then, this is now; cold

covered now with snow

all the sunflowers are gone

yet I face the sun

CD 641-spring kimono

simple threads

as a little child

I would dress in grandmothers

aprons - my new gown

hung from my waist to my toes

old for her, so new to me

in my fantasy

no responsibilities

as a little child

CD 640-first-sun

do ray me

first sun

was a few days late

sleeping in

fog ruled

rain and hail code tapping

the skylight

still warm enough

the ducks are swimming

squirrels enjoy birdseed

black raven

visits the bare willow

and maples

we all wonder

where is that first sun

that golden aura

Orange Oracle? 1.3 two prompts

Orange Oracle?               1.3

CD-time-machine-1-orange

Red Wolf: (last wordle, last prompt) calling-calling/

orange, flame, butt, poltergeist, icebergs

Orange Oracle?

flavor, flame, icebergs

all in the same glass, no butt -

poltergeist needed

melting cubes, mountains of time

the flame of a hangover

poltergeist needed

wants no butt, so drink it up

icebergs, flame, flavor

the acid of orange juice

tames, tempers ones’ solutions

icebergs, that cold look

fanning the orange of flames -

butt of poltergeist

scare the fat off, butt just laughs

spreading inherited cheer

butt of poltergeist

sit on inflamed hands reaching

for sweet candy corn

new year’s resolutions - wait

to be honored; orange you glad

Note: Just having fun with the prompts.
