More #MoPoetry2019

Welcome poetry peeps! Once again I’m linking to my #MoPoetry2019 Insta-Poems for PoetryFriday. This week marked halfway… Rolling downhill now! Thank-you Michelle Kogan, Carol Varsalona, Linda Baie and Jone MacCulloch for also jumping in and sharing the creativity! It’s been fun. I’m looking forward to another week of word art.😊

The bees are not the only things that love my blushing antigonon vine. Such a vibrant splash of colour! (Which I am constantly having to cut back!!) . . . #MoPoetry2019 #mybackyard #antigonon #pink #hearts #flowers #inmygarden #nature #haiku #InstaPoetry #poemaday #authorsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram

A cherita has three separate-but-related stanzas. It’s almost like haiku – with a squidge more room to play. . . #MoPoetry2019 #onyourbike #afternoonride #blue #jellyfish #notajellyfish #nature #jetsam #rubbishontheroad #cherita #wordplay #InstaPoetry #poemaday #authorsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram

Having started #MoPoetry2019 with fireworks, I couldn’t very well repeat the analogy – even though it would be perfect for this spider lily pic! I had to put a twist on it.🧚‍♂️ #thinkoutsidethebox #spiderlily #flowers #inmygarden #fairies #gnomes #wordplay #perspective #fireworks#InstaPoetry #poemaday #authorsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram

It seems we bought a new cat’s playground. And we thought we were buying a set of drawers… . . #MoPoetry2019 #catsofinstagram #catsinboxes #thinkoutsidethebox #catwisdom #CatFacts #SavvyCat #wordplay#perspective #InstaPoetry #poemaday #authorsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram #petsofinstagram #goneshopping

Sometimes you have to write eight poems… to get the one you want. 🤪🙃 This is a zeno – with a syllable/rhyme pattern; 8, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1 – all 1-syllable lines rhyme. Fortunately our turtle friend is now in the big dam – with abundant water, fish…and turtles! 🐢 . . #MoPoetry2019 #zeno #rhyme #turtle #terrapin #takeawalk #mudpuddles #summer #turtles #InstaPoetry #poemaday #authorsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram #ruralQld #thisisQld #onthefarm #farmlife

Some people think yard rails are to keep cattle in. Personally I think they’re stepping stones to getting up and OUT! 😬 (Actually, that little face doesn’t scare me.) . . #MoPoetry2019 #ruralQld #thisisQld #onthefarm #farmlife #cattlework #notacowgirl #scaredofcows #fencesitter #ruralQld #thisisQld #onthefarm #summer #InstaPoetry #poemaday #authorsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #poetrygram #freeverse #cobb&co #fencing #cattleyards #droughtmaster #calf #cute #gladstoneregion

Ooops. Turns out I was getting ahead of myself – and today is only Thursday! (All day!!) So – here is one more Insta-Poem, to round off my week of #MoPoetry2019.

If you’ve got a fave, I’d love to hear it. It’s always interesting to know what appeals to others. 🙂 If you’re tempted to join in with some of your own, you’ll find us at #MoPoetry2019 on Instagram.
