Poetry for Mondays


Recommended Posts

Poetry to brighten up a dull Monday...

 

"Monday, Moon's Day,

Ought to shine in the week

like new-minted silver.

Dull copper thoughts

just add another penny

to yesterday's small change" anon

 

"The way a crow shook down on me

a dust of snow from a hemlock tree

has given my heart a change of mood

and saved some part of a day I had rued"

can't remember the poet

 

Cosy:P

I'm glad this thread was started. Here is a poem of mine which was published in a magazine about two years ago.

 

Those Cup Of Sugar Days

 

All for each

one for one

those cup-of-sugar-days are gone.

 

Locked in boxes

self-inflicted

to soaps and tabloids

become addicted.

Be the DJ

the landlord

the microwave chef

pour out another as you scream at the ref.

Electronic wallets

cashless

DD’s

pick up the phone ring shoppers TV.

Conversation gone

no need for chat

cosy

warm

just stay where you’re sat.

We’ve sewn the seeds

that strangle the mind

self centered hunger

ravenous

blind.

 

One for each

all for one

those-cup-of-sugar-days are gone

Hey guys... don't waste your beautiful Monday poetry on this bunch of phillistines (only joking, I know there are some very lovely creative types here).

 

Post them on the forum of this (o.k., so it's mine) wonderful literary website: The Scriberazone.

 

As featured (well the main site away) in the Sunday Times, the Independent and the Beeb.

 

Cheers

Would anyone be interested in viewing some material from my 'Spring collection'? Interestingly, it began as a trilogy of 'hard verse', although it contained strong social overtones. But then it seemed to take on a life of it's own and slowly became something much, much bigger.

 

It is designed to provide the reader with a careful insight into the richness of our colourful language and, hopefully the careful choice of syntax will be enormously fulfilling and leave a lasting impression within the reader's mindseye.

Hello people, it is Monday, another week starts. Aren’t you happy with that? :D

 

I’m very serious indeed!

 

 

P.S. I mean Sunday must be on the bottom of my personal hit-list. Dunno why really, mb because TV is extremely dull on that day :?
