Girl with a Curl

M.A.D. Works

There once was a girl with a curl,
Who danced with a swish and a twirl.
With the wind in her hair,
She showed off her flair,
And won every heart in the whirl!

Shattered Spirit

M.A.D. Works

Wearing weary pants with a tired seam,
Carrying a burden, like a broken dream.
My spirit feels shattered, frayed and worn,
But still, I carry on, though I feel torn.

The Quiet Blue Below

M.A.D. Works

In the depths of the ocean, the hue is so blue,
A tranquil reminder of skies that feel new.
Cobalt and azure blend in a view,
Embracing our senses with every soft hue.

The Door with a Mind of Its Own- Last Weeks Laughing Along With A limerick!

M.A.D. Works

That squeaked every time to the floor.
It refused to stay shut,
Even swung with a strut,
As if saying, “Come back for more.”

Anger into Understanding

M.A.D. Works

Retract harsh words said
Detract not from love’s embrace
Subtract the anger
Replace with understanding
And watch our bond strengthen
