Three Things Challenge #M796

SCREW
TACK
NAIL

Screws, tacks, and nails, oh my!
In the workshop, they all do lie.
The screw got twisted and turned around,
The tack got stuck but didn’t make a sound.
And the nail, oh the nail, so strong and stout,
It held it all together without a doubt.

REMNANT
PIECE
RAG

The remnant piece of rag,

A symbol of strength and hope,

In Victoria’s hands it lay,

A testament to resilience.

Tattered and worn, yet cherished so,

It held memories of struggles,

But through it all, it stood tall,

A reminder of perseverance.

Drowning

Drowning in sorrow

Wrapped in self-indulgent woe

Self-pity’s dark hold

Brings me down even lower

As I try to stay afloat…

Stretched

Stretched to the limit

Pressure pulling tight and taut

Strained and stressed within

Pressed as hard as one can be

Any further, and I’ll snap…

The Man With a Heart of Gold

M.A.D. Works


A man with a heart of gold
Everyone who meets him, their hearts unfold
A smile that lights up the darkest room
With him around, there’s never any gloom

His determination, an inspiring sight
No challenge too big, he’ll take it on
With him by your side, you’ll never feel alone

His love for life, infectious and true
He’ll do anything for the people he knew
A friend to all, he’ll lend an ear
His advice, always sincere

So here’s to a man like no other
May his light continue to shine forever
In our hearts, he’ll always stay
A man in every single way.

You captured my heart the first time we met
A rapture of emotions I couldn’t forget
Left everything in your enchanting act

Evil is Here

Inhuman snarls, growl

Hungering for flesh and blood

Who will it strike next

Darkness falls, fear fills the air

Eyes gleam in the night’s embrace…

Nonchalant Breeze

M.A.D. Works

In a nonchalant world, I stroll with ease,
Carefree and light as a breeze.
Sunsets come and troubles go,
Nonchalant, embracing the flow.

Do not turn around

Lest you all be turned to stone

Dwelling is danger

Watching me you’ll turn to stone

Beware the eyes that follow…

What If

M.A.D. Works
Missy’s MAD Challenge #003

What if,
the sun refused to rise,
And the moon decided not to set?

What if,
the stars fell from the skies,
And the oceans all dried up and left?

What if,
birds forgot to sing,
And flowers never bloomed again?

What if,
winter forgot to bring
Snowflakes gently falling, now and then?

What if,
love ceased to exist,
And kindness disappeared from sight?

What if,
hope could not persist,
And darkness banished all the light?

But even in these what if’s, true,
There’s strength in us and ways to cope.
For in our hearts, the answers brew,
And we’ll find our way through, with hope.

Embroidered tales, stitch by stitch

Hungry hawk circles 

Looking for some smaller prey

All rodents, beware

Danger is lurking nearby

Protect others and yourself…
