Haiku Thursday: Clap if You Believe

Mothership

Location: Chicago, Illinois, USA
Birthday: January 04

Title: Cinderellen
Company: Enjoyable, I would hope...

Bio: First 19 years: Peoria, Illinois. During years since, I've lived alternately between Iowa and Illinois. Each relocation required that I set my wristwatch backward, or forward, 100 years, respectively. I am pleased to report that I have once more, returned to my home state, but reserve to option to relocate, if circumstances lead me elsewhere. I am an artist and poet by nature; a health care professional by necessity. My main claim to fame, for purposes of this forum, is that it is my great privilege and honor to be the female component of the bio-pair that co-created our singularly stellar muse, Verbal Remedy.

“It’s never too late to have a happy childhood.”

~ Claudia Black ~

Stay my Peter Pan

Don’t grow up entirely

Keep that man-child charm

Should you seek a glow

I will be your Tinkerbell

Tucked inside your heart

So, think happy thoughts

And I’ll sprinkle fairy-dust

As we then take flight

Never-Never Land

The second star to the right

Glimmers within sight

I loved this. Every man needs a woman to encourage his Peter Pan.

Awwww. Sweet.

But in the meanwhile, in this corner, excuse me while I take off my fairy wings...here, take my Tinkerbell costume. I'm so DONE with it!

If I could just get the energy to fly again. (I'm trying, I"m trying.)

Are you?

I'll only do it if I can be like Tinkerbell...flitting about!

Love these...

Sweet. I kept seeing my son's sweet face while I read this and wondering who he will become.

Funny you should mention it. I was just wandering when did I lose my wings? I think they're buried beneath all the fairy dust ...and I don't feel like cleaning up.
