BLOG HOPPING TODAY WITH




grim glittering crumble empties confetti voracious unfurls wind split mind sign deck

all hands on deck -
this old saying now alive
with new promise

glittering  rhinestones -
did the stars fall out unto
the coat of this guy

a grim wind blows
split banana flower unfurls -
morning birds sing

cookies crumble  in 
the hands of a toddler -
and grandma as well

voracious ants feed -
leftovers a confetti
their intimate prize

sign of attention
 empties her mind of all else 
rain on the rooftop
