Dew-soaked
Fine strands revealed
A camouflage no more
Now the flies can see what’s in store
A trap

Return
Return
A homecoming
Wonderful reunion
Blessed time of loving communion
Restored
Padre
Into The Unknown
Winding
The footpath snakes
Through lands unfamiliar
Apprehension builds at each turn
Despair
Padre
Cuddle-in
Be calm
oh little one
it is time now to rest.
Cuddle-in now, don’t be distressed.
Sleep deep.
Padre
Game Time
Breath held
Excited anticipation
Dreams that their team will win
They fill the stands
Trusting
Colleen’s syllabic challenge this week is to write a poem using synonyms for eager and hope. As sports often have reversals, I have gone with a reverse cinquain form.

By Dreams United
Distant –
Sleep united
Nocturnal encounters
Of our souls and minds in repose
Dreams sweet
Colleen’s syllabic challenge is to write a poem with the themes of dreams.
An Evening Damp
Rain falls
On damp pavement
Night falls on city streets
Commuters scramble homeward-bound
To sleep
Padre
Tides
Tides turn
Ebb follows flow
The flotsam and jetsam
Intertwine and then float away
Cycle
Padre
Colleen’s syllabic challenge this week is to write a poem which uses synonyms for “mingle and drift.”
Job Well Done: A Cinquain
A deed
Done zealously
Trying always to please
I should have never dreamed he would
Thank me
Padre

Lakeside
Lakeside
Amid bare trees
The water Autumn greets
Together in the year’s twilight
