Thrilled to be back at Duane’s awesome PoeTree. A prayer and a wish for all the lovely people we have in our lives- May they endure 🙏
For months now, I have been poeming on treadmills so this was natural.

Always a great honour to be at the one and only Duane’s PoeTree. Do read the commentary by Duane Vorhees in the comments by clicking on the link. That is the most interesting part of it.

Order cannot laugh
They sat in neat lines
heads turned towards the left
sitting as they were put
All
except
one
that wriggled its bottom
twiddled its thumbs
rocked on its bum
and created a disarray
forcing the tidy ones
to rearrange themselves
around the mess
in a bid to hide
the chaos
and the sore thumb
laughed secretly
then out loud
and was still laughing
when they threw it out
and formed a new order.

Someone Came Knocking at Duane’s PoeTree
If the scene could hold the eyes
like eyes cling to passing scenes
Yours and mine wouldn’t be strangers still
