Melting Ice-Cream

Noughts and Crosses in the sky,

Hopscotch on the lake;

Musical status trees observe

the water muscle's shake.

 

Rhyming smells skip through the air,

sleeping blossom wakes;

Sounds of stillness resonate

like Bluebells' stomach ache.

 

The lemon custard frisbee smiles

as ‘Kiss Chase’ swans play dare.

The tissue paper landscape weeps.

I wish I’d been aware.

Hey I had to log in and make comment as this really caught my eye. Very well constructed and thoughtful


love 'lemon custard frisbee ' and tissuepaper landscape. Nice links

did you mean 'water muscle's shake'

and

'Bluebells' stomach ache'?


Thanks for sharing - delightful poem
