NaPoWriMo 2016

 

Day Twenty Nine

 

The prompt at NaPoWriMo today was to

write a poem based on things you remember.

 

Here’s mine:

 

MEMORIES

Monday we said we would always be bold  

My very first kiss – sixteen – seconds old

Falling back to earth in a lead balloon

She thought that she was flying to the moon

 

Memories can flatter and sometimes please

Dib dib dib - Dob dob dob - all of those d’s

Falling off the pier she soon learnt to swim

Remember the day of the world cup win

 

Akela – the sex pest – we’ll do our best

She tried to tempt me did I pass the test

Remember the cold November the fifth

Tuesday was colder she told me forthwith

 

I’m always wrong so she won’t let me stay

Monday through Tuesday - to half day Wednesday
