Poetry Monday :: Opposite Day

If you want to read some better  poetry,  Diane - who has taken over the hosting of  this challenge - and Mimi of Messymimi's Meanderings - who also supplies us with topics - are writing wonderful, funny, thought-provoking, ingenious and honestly well written verse. Go and read.

  Karen of Baking in a Tornado has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month - may  we hope for more!

  SpikesBestMate often publishes a nice verse in the comments.

  Jenny at Procrastinating Donkey who has been a faithful participant, is slowly returning to blogging after her husband's passing from this world. Let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and lots of prayers her way. And dare we hope that she will join Poetry Monday again.

Omvendtdagen fejres i morgen, den 25. januar, men nogle eksperter siger, at vi bør fejre den hver den 25. Det er Uglemor helt med på! Omvendt er sundt! Det er sundt at gøre ting omvendt, med den anden hånd eller fod eller mens man står på hovedet. Ligesom uglerne herunder, som også har fået vendt farverne om.

The Opposite Day is observed on January 25. Other experts believe that it is to be celebrated every month of the year on the 25th day. I go for every 25th as I always forget to celebrate, and this is bad, as opposite is good for you! Doing things the other way around, with the other hand or foot, or while standing on your head is good for you! Just like those owls, who also had their colours inverted. 


Men på denne omvendtdag har Uglemor ondt i nakke og skuldermuskler og har ikke lyst til at sidde og skrive lange, omvendte digte, hvilket ellers var planen; så hun nøjes med et lille wannabe-Haiku.
     Også denne dag
     er omvendt hvis vi vil det.
     Lad os stoppe nu.

But on this opposite day MotherOwl's neck and shoulder muscles are tense and causing dizziness and bad vision. Not the right thing for making long, intricate verses, which she planned in the wee, sleepless hours of the morning.
A short wannabe-Haiku is all for today.
     Today we can be
     opposite if we want to.
     Let us stop right now!

  3. I have never heard of opposite day and since I often do things with the opposite hand, I'll have to think of something else to do opposite. Perhaps I'll watch TV during the day instead of in the evening.
