Poetry Monday is hosted by Diane, and she and Mimi of
Messymimi's Meanderings - who supplies us with many of the topics - are also writing wonderful, funny,
thought-provoking, ingenious and honestly well written verse. Go and
read them!
Karen of
Baking in a Tornado
has joined us in this crazy pursuit, and promises us at least a poem a month!
SpikesBestMate
often publishes a nice verse in the comments.
Jenny at
Procrastinating Donkey
who has been a faithful participant, was slowly returning to blogging
after her husband's passing from
this world. But then a humongous storm blew past and interrupted the flow of electricity and it seems Jenny never really got back after this. Let's hope there's nothing worse happening than a break, and let's continue to send warm thoughts, good energy, and
lots of
prayers her way. Let us hope that she will join Poetry Monday again, she is missed.
This time you'll have two shorties, a WordLit and a Haiku.
Potted plants growing
in my rooms. Green in winter
and brown in summer.

Next Mondays topic is: Muffins.
Smiling. I am MUCH better at growing plants outdoors than in. Much,much better.
SvarSletI tend to forget the indoor ones over summmer, there's so much growing going on outside. I just finished my yearly winter-begin plant inspection and brushing off, only 3 non-survivors.
SletIt's not easy to remember the plants indoors, is it.
SvarSletNot in the summer at least, no.
SletI can't have potted plants inside because of my hayfever and the soil eventually starts to smell musty which is even worse for me.
SvarSletYou need to grow Tillandsia, which just need a drop of air and a dusting now and then, or maybe a hydrophonic garden of non-flowering flowers. I just can't have smmely ones like hyacinths.
