Maybe that's why it came to me!

How about - chickadees?

Well Actually it was Flowers but I did it about a funeral. did you know that a TAG is supposed to be only one word?? If you make it two, it makes it too specific and more difficult to come up with something. Took me a while to figure that out but it's true.

>TAG< chickadee

one word? news to me I've done tag poems on intergalactic express , tribal warfare, first kiss, spring flowers, the whole idea of tag is to get the brain juices flowing and creativeness flowing, thats the purpose of tag, force you to be creative, originally it was a chat room game I played for years on aol, sometimes tag subjects may duplicate that happens, I say we all could write a poem on same subject at same time and I bet all of them would be different, from perspective and from direction the poem goes, I always enjoyed when we would sit in the chat room and we all added one sentence to a poem, we as a group came up with some wild and some dang good ones, it sort of like that story line thread, in the games sectiobn, just add 5 words and keep the story line going, I am not trying to step on any toes, just wanted to express the idea is to create and use the noggin, I got MS and do everything i can to keep my brain sharper than a spoon



chickadees so sweet is their song
hearing it on a path i walk along
they dart to and fro, fast as a nuthatch
flitting from branch to branch and through the thatch
so small so frail, their markings so pretty to see
one of my favorite birds in a chickadee


tag subject

summer storms

Yes you are Frank. That's Exactly what you are doing. I too have played this game on many different sites and the One Word Tag has always been the rule. See how much MORE restricted you are with "Summer Storms" than if you said Either "Summer" or "Storms" ? You won't admit it but it's true. I am not trying to step on any toes either.

ok you two. Got one for you,. I not stepping on anyones toes i hope?

BLUE OCTOBER


Now blue October, smokey in the sun,

Must end the long sweet summer of the heart.

The last brief visit of the birds is done,

They sing an auntumn song before they part.


Listen, how lovely, there is the thrush we heard

When June was filled with roses.

And the bending blossoms covered branches

To shelter nests, holding music of the birds.


Give me your hand, once more before the night,

See how the meadows darken with the frost.

How fades the green that was the summer light,

Beauty is only altered, never lost!!!!!!

TAG ................ FISH

Fish are slippery
with gills and tails
They're slimy and icky
with lots of scales

Some people clean them
they fry them and eat
But they smell icky
like sweaty feet




TAG> clock

I will turn my back
To the face of the clock
And my face to flowing river,
Where there's no Wednesday
And no bedtime
And no taxes due
And no growing older.
I will turn away from time
And for a time
It will not exist.



Tag: light

I see the light,
In the distance it’s there,
Maybe it’s fading,
It doesn’t seem fair.
I see the light,
But it’s not very clear,
Maybe it’s blocked,
By the shadow of fear.
I see the light,
But it’s so far away,
Maybe I’ll reach it,
But it won’t be today…

Tag - Night/s

NIGHT VISION-BMW-
I hear the dark coming,
I feel it smothering,
Slowly ending daytime,
And morphing to night.
I look searching infinitely,
For a ray of light to appear.
Waiting to find that,
My darkness is sprinkled,
With many pin point rays,
Beaming from a zillion,
Light years away.
To comfort me,
Guide me and behoove my
Total issolatation in darkness.
I see the new moon smiling
Down upon me in approval.
The stars moving slowly,
In motion as earth spins
Wildly in a crazed routine,
I hang on and smile at the ride.

Tag is Eskimo

Eskimo

I am an Eskimo;
Living here out in the snow,
I get light 24 hours a day
without a night at all you say?
Quite indeed you're correct;
But I must imply with this aspect,
Also get 24 hours all night
without any daylight in sight!
It is very unique residing in the wilderness
and great is the vast broadness;
From the Mountainous ranges in sight
looking straight down to the valley is a fright!
I love my unique land
in which it seems to expand;
For I am an Eskimo!
