clever! a great showcasing
of Art and Poetry, in-sync
to explore that Brevity
of self-expression..
thanks for sharing Michael
and as ever
inspiring me, to scribble
yet another, humble
poetic reply)
\'personally, dear Artist
I identify best
with that yellow corner, you injected
as an alternate, possibility
of reality\'s, differing perspectives
that colour of weakness
or simultaneously
a nourishing Sun\'s, brightness
waking up each day
doing, what it can
and then, when the time comes
surrendering
for the Moon, to do its thing
and accept those cycles of inevitability
in existence...
a humble, power
existing in those realms
between the warring
red and green
of stop - start, headstrong
stalwarts, in life...
yeah, find me
in that amber corner of agreeability
waiting my turn, crossing briskly
before the sign, starts to flash
and those alarms, beep
resoundingly, to once more
announce that arrival
of invading chaos, in our
fragile
small corners of the world!\'

We get Specsavers ads here, Michael..not sure I\'ve seen that one.. However, I might need a pair after an attempt to view your latest art. Can\'t keep my eyes steady after that. How much more complex will you go? looking forward to it!

Ah but definitely beyond limerick Michael; increased complexity in tune with the visuals above.
I hope to see this continue, free of competitive rhymes (not you, dusk) well into the future.......

L. B. Mek said:
just crazy, to introduce war
to a world still reeling from COVID..
an apt use of reverse psychology
in poetic form, to showcase
your exasperation
at this befuddling and shameful episode
in humanity\'s history..
humour needs to prick
if it\'s to encourage the healing of our overwhelmed
sensitivity\'s, I think
(as long as it\'s in good taste)..
thanks Michael, a read that adds a realistic
balanced and relatable perspective
to this challenging times..
(btw
on another note, in USA
as a way to get money, right
to the hands of the Ukraine people
and not some, charity scam
people began booking, Airbnb
rooms and requesting
no refunds, for cancellations
or unavailable status of rooms
so the owners got the money direct..
I thought this was so inventive
and reassured my dwindling hopes
that goodness, may someday
prevail)

a missile, a bomb or a murderous shooting
which poisonous death awaits mr putin
how many more times
shall we witness war crimes
before the day someone executes him

I\'ve just written one about Kiev which on reflection could sound quite disrespectful given the tragic circumstances so I\'ve posted this instead. Still hesitant about posting it as I don\'t want to cause hurt even though there is still room for humour in the darkest hours.

I MISS YOU
Doggerel Dave said:
Wot, Michael – no limerick double ‘0’, with prefix one?
Surely it would be good to round it out and do the ton?
‘Apologies for previous conflagration -
I will endeavour to avoid future mention:
But this takes restraint, and that’s not easy when all is done.

So multi disciplined, Michael: L’s one and three – Relationship[ councellor extraordinaire: L2 – incontinence advisor.
Cross discipline, I know, but one has to diversify in these uncertain times.
Your artworks …complexity rulez. Great.
