The Touron

Bella I love the term it fits. This reminds me of a trip I made to Yellowstone years ago where I saw a tourist shake the antlers on a bull moose to get it to stand up so he could take a picture. I was sure I was going to get a good shot of someone getting stomped to death but he was lucky with the beast standing up and posing for him.

Find Myself
Pop64 said:

For it is most important to find and love oneself before they can truly love another. Through finding self, we find peace, solace and learn acceptance. 3 short lines with a dramatic effect and meaning.

crazy how in-sync two strangers can be
\"Sometimes, as I drift idly on
Walden Pond,
I cease to live and begin, to be.”

so surreal this journey guided by Poesy\'s ink

The Touron
L. B. Mek said:

Yellowstone seems to bring out
the moronic in visitors
so many wildly unbelievable tales
and they never learn
rather with each generation, becoming
more ignorantly bold...
(where\'s Hemingway and his rifle ink
to protect his beloved Yellowstone
of scenic tranquillity)

Penicillium Notatum
L. B. Mek said:

Brilliant!
your words bring back sound
of my sister and father
sneezing, their tear filled eyes
of shackled frustration..
(such a great write)

Life
L. B. Mek said:

so true, but
like all things essential in life
it takes wisdom to distil it accessible
and for that, I thank you wise Poet

The first two lines are enough , Bella - I can keep them in an increasingly shrinking memory....they are complete unto themselves -

The rest provide some interesting extensions....will you charge extra....? 😇

Dear Bella, Just waking each day is a miracle

Your poem is very wise and so very enjoyable the fancy rhyme.

The goal is to survive

To flourish and to thrive

From all that I derive

Be glad to be alive

I had a chuckle as only you could rhyme so flawlessly 💖

Now behave Orchi. No guffawing in church over the \'speaking blackbird\' line! Doh, it\'s poetic expression, Fido tells me.
But he talks to blackbirds. lol.

Though I know two or three of Shakey\'s quotes - \'Hamlet\' is quite \'quote-y\', if that\'s even a word?! lol.

Only those lucky enough can say yes. And yes! it\'s an amazing feeling to just be, be still, be a part of everything, finding symbiosis. Terrific haiku!
