Paulina the Panorama Panda

Paulina the Panda
was trying to create a panorama of her pantry,
but every time she clicked the shutter,
the snacks staged a mutiny.

The noodles somersaulted,
the rice bags burst in flight,
a jar of pickles photobombed
with a crunchy sort of delight.

Her bamboo biscuits giggled,
her honey jars struck a pose—
and Paulina sighed, “This pantry’s wild…
I should’ve photographed my toes.”

So she snapped one final picture,
chaos swirling everywhere—
and declared it modern art,
with a very panda flair.

Three Things Challenge #MM458

Your three words today are:
ANGER
ANTICIPATE
ASK

I feel anger rise like a storm I didn’t name,
Yet I anticipate the moment it softens into rain.
So I ask my heart to breathe, to loosen its tight hold—
To turn the heat of fury into something calm and bold.

Your three words today are:
OPINION
OATH
OUTLINE

Your opinion drifts to me,
Light as wind across a field.

I hold an oath inside my heart,
A promise I will never yield.

Life draws its quiet outline,
A shape we slowly learn to fill.

Song Beyond the News

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM448

Your three words today are:
NIGHTINGALE
NORMAL
NEWS

A nightingale sings softly in the trees,
Turning normal moments into gentle melodies.
Its song drifts farther than the morning news,
A reminder that quiet beauty is ours to choose.

Your three words today are:
MASH
MAST
MARSH

A tall mast stood beside the marsh,
Where winter winds blew cold and harsh.
They stepped into the sodden bog
And churned the frozen earth to mash.

The Memory in the Soil

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM446

Your three words today are:
LOAM
LOATHE
LIST

In the quiet cradle of loam,
Seeds whisper of futures they’ve yet to enlist.
I loathe how time forgets their stories—
how roots grow long, yet names slip from the list.

Still, the earth remembers everything,
holding every rise and ruin close—
a keeper of what we cherish,
and what we choose to let go.

Stamp Me Down

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM383

I stomp past the old tree stump,
leaves lifting as I land each jump.
Life tries to stamp me down at times,
but I rise again—
beat for beat,
rhyme for rhyme.

Poetry

Washed Away

M.A.D. Works

Wipe the smile off your face.
Where you went washed away
the trust we built between us—
you burned the bridge clean through
and still act like you’re innocent.

I Went to Hunt

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge : #MM348

I went to hunt for wisdom
in a forest made of rhyme,
but all I found were hollow trees
complaining about time.

A squirrel gave a humble bow
and said, “You’re searching far too wide.
The answers that you’re hunting for
are hiding right inside.”

So now I chase my questions
with a grin instead of fear,
because every humble, hollow place
has something bright to hear.

A Giant with Sass

M.A.D. Works

There once was a giant who’d sass,
While sipping from one massive glass.
But a sneeze from his gland,
Shook the whole forest land,
And startled the birds as they passed.

As I Think and Tinker Away

M.A.D. Works

Three Things Challenge MM336


As I think and tinker away,
I leave a trail of quiet lines behind—
soft echoes of the moments
my mind wandered farther than my hands.

Each thought becomes a footprint,
each idea a small lantern dropped
for whoever might follow
the winding path I made.

And though the work is never finished,
the trail is proof I was here—
thinking, tinkering,
shaping something out of the unseen.

Rely On You

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM334

Your final three words this week are:
RELY
REBEL
RESENT

I used to rely on you,
Maybe that is what made you resent me,
And caused you to rebel—
But I’m still standing in the quiet aftermath,
Sorting through the echoes of what we were,
Learning how to breathe without your shadow,
And teaching my heart not to flinch
At the memory of your leaving.

In the Morning Light

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM295

Your three words today are:
ELEPHANT
EARLY
EARNEST

In the morning light, an elephant strides,
With grace in its steps, where the river glides.
Early to rise, it greets the day bright,
In the soft dawn glow, everything feels right.

Earnest and gentle, it roams the wide land,
A symbol of wisdom, so steady and grand.
Through jungles and savannas, with each grand advance,
The elephant dances, a majestic romance.

Bonfire

M.A.D. Works

The spark and flame were as bright as a bonfire on a dark night,
Dancing embers in the cool air, casting shadows in the light.
Whispers of stories wrapped in smoke, drifting up to the skies,
Each flicker held a memory, each glow a soft lullabies.

The stars twinkled overhead, like secrets just out of reach,
While warmth embraced our laughter, in a language none could teach.
We gathered close in a circle, our hearts woven tight and near,
The world outside forgotten, as we shared what we held dear.

The crackle and pop, a symphony, played on the wooden logs,
As time slipped by unnoticed, like the fading of the fog.
With every spark that soared and fell, we felt a moment’s grace,
A reminder of the fleeting time, and the beauty we embrace.

So let the flames keep burning, let their light guide us through,
For in each bright reflection, lies the warmth of me and you.
And as the night grows deeper, with stars that shine above,
May we hold on to this magic, wrapped in the comfort of our love.

Chuck the Stuck Cow

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM236

Your final three words for this week are:
STUCK
CLUCK
CHUCK

There once was a cow named Chuck
Who seems to be stuck, oh what luck!
In the mud he did tread,
With a loud moo he said,
“I’d rather be clucking like a duck!”
