River of Stones

As predicted the monsoon season is here at last.  Last night it rained, life giving liquid  washed over the desert.

Sunday Whirl Wordle

World             galloping

Fluttered        buzz

Logic               instinct

Poem              river

Resist              whim

Though           twisted

The Words are Waiting

Floating down the river

Twisted in the debris

The words are waiting

To become the poem

The buzz made by the words

Bumping together

Like the soft hum of a lone bee

Though the meaning

Is unclear — twisted

And wrung out to dry

Crackles in the wind

The world waits

The words flutter down

Upon the page

There is no logic

It is the instinct

For survival

Hug the body

With my knees

Galloping

Across the plane

There is no resistance

In the wind

The words are waiting

To become the poem

The Woods

Sunday Scribbling prompt The Woods

The Woods

All is dry

Thirst for water

Sun shines bright

Tinder box

Waiting to explode

No, you may not go there

No one is allowed

Waiting for the promised water

All is dry

The relentless sun

Continues to shine

Tinder box

Like the beating heart within

Waiting to explode

No one is allowed

In the woods
