Poetry Monday is a challenge, normally hosted by Diane at On the Border.
But from Monday, January 8, 2024, Messymimi
and I have conspired to keep the chair
warm for her, as she's taking a break due to
health issues. We will each set the topics for one month, I began with
January, Mimi supplied for February, and so on until Diane returns.
Today is Tape.
As I have been busy writing A-Z posts, and furthermore now more times than I care to recall, falsely hoped to retain a poem in my mind, I wrote down the small idea that came to me yesterday. Nothing better came to my mind today, so I was happy to at least have something to show.
Tape can be so many things
Sticky tape to fix the shattering
while Red tape is for hampering.
Finish line tape for those that win
and Music tape for those that sing.
I use my Tape measure to see
how many miles I knit for thee.
Use duct tape for repair of all
that moves and should not - took a fall.
Police tape in the very end
is not a very pleasant thing.
