Once again, I'm covering two days-worth of poems in one day.  I'm wanting to visit with YOU, my friends, & so am making these poems short!  I am enjoying this poetry challenge so much ... not just writing the poems, but seeing the various ways that others interpret the prompts, too. Thanks again to Val for initiating the poetry month celebration!

On Monday, the prompt was "covered bridge" ... there are many of them in Ohio, where I live, & how I love them! SO I wrote a short poem celebrating the subject.  This bridge is located quite close to where we live; I'm thinking that this might be the one that a boyfriend and I visited when I was in college.  This photo was taken by Chris Light at en.wikipedia.

COVERED BRIDGES

Beauty of antiquity

Structural simplicity

Stirs my heart romantically

Covered bridge -- you speak to me!

For today, the prompt was "carpet" ... and my poem is a whimsical & and fantasizing offering.

At my very beck and call

(And you never let me fall),

You will take me anywhere

That my heart and mind may dare

To ask of you another ride --

My magic carpet, You will glide!

Right now I'm going to "fly around" Xanga via my computer keyboard to visit each of you.  :-)   Closing with my quote for the day.
