DavGar51Hello! I have been on holiday but I am back to #PoetsonThursday with great news! I have a poem in a wonderful anthology called ‘Glisk and Glimmer; poems about light’ from the inestimable Sídhe Press. It is out today and on Amazon tomorrow:-)
My poem Dark side of the Room, in honour of the 50th anniversary of #DarkSideOfTheMoon by #PinkFloyd has been published! On #PoetsonThursday https://thewombwellrainbow.com/2023/03/16/pink-floyds-dark-side-of-the-moon-was-released-in-america-on-1st-march-1973-i-was-ten-it-still-influences-my-writing-i-will-feature-your-draft-or-published-unpublished-poetry-short-prose-artw/
Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side Of The Moon” was released in America on 1st March 1973. I was ten. It still influences my writing. I will feature your draft or published/unpublished poetry/short prose/artworks about this album. Please include a short third person bio.
FrankUp naturally at 3:30. Roll into my meditation throne. Refuge and seven minutes of #meditation is a wonderful way to start the day.
Across the house to my studio, offer flowers, incense, water, and a Bob Ross secular saints votive candle to the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and my teachers, and sit down at my work table to find a #poem flowing out of me.
It's not always like this, but when it is, it's delicious!

Vicki LeighDear @davgar51 and @guentheralex Here is a poem I originally wrote for @PoetsonThursday for the bird site when I was thinking about my best friend (truly), and then thought of my human friends there. So, after schmoozing with my friend the cat (Lucie-Minou), and feeling sorry for myself, anyway, the poem was written and I posted it midweek, on Sunday, inviting others to do the same. But it's now Wed. am and so I'm puttinig it up here, #PoetsonThursday #poetry. Copyright 1/28/23, VLB) Vicki
Vicki LeighA silly poem I wrote yesterday for #PoetsonThursday #poetry today. It's called "Once in a Summer Park" C. 1/25/23 Victoria Leigh Bennett
Piney, pinny, piddy,
Down went all the ducks,
Over went to feed them
Folks with crumbs and clucks.
"Cluckest thou at me, sir?"
Quacked a stately drake,
One who'd fed on
Shakespeare,
In summer's park once spake.
His match in human form then
Who'd heard his reference* right
Responded, "No, but I cluck!"
And tossed a crumb for spite.
*Rom. & Jul., fight scene
