Shamrock

Challenges, Poetry, , , , , 28 Comments

A wee green frog perched atop a rock

He needs a kiss from a Miss to live in bliss

No time to wince for a wanna be prince

A trove of treasure yet to unlock

Revealing dreams and a lucky shamrock

  4. Beneath the shamrock he did lie,
    Hoping that his princess would soon pass by.
    She came each day, looking for him.
    He did by the shadows, for her not to see him.
    She was seeking her love, hidden by the queen.
    Her prince was cast out…Never to be seen.

      1. I’m sorry it was more than five lines.
        I also meant to type.. “He hid by the shadows…” 🙂

        ***This got me thinking about the lucky shamrock being a shield, because he did not want to be rejected or hurt. He did not understand she loved him… sigh!
        Glad you enjoyed. Thank you.

  6. I sometimes remiss
    not intentionally
    my apologies

    you too a master
    your poetry enhances
    life in many ways

    a dedication
    to you Eugenia
    on this sunny day

    a leprechaun
    once a frog himself was kissed
    now immortal

    the tale a myth
    all life coms to an ending
    tales life’s legacies

    as you now have read
    I don’t forget a thank you
    often bleated

    hope you like senryu
    in appreciation
    of a master you

    now a haiku
    my goodbye for today
    again my thank you’s

    A Haiku Finale

    spring day glorious
    house sparrows twittering
    grape hyacinths divine

    &
    a
    poem to boot

    Watch out for a pingback,
    I hope, a Leprechauns surprise.
    Once a frog, now rid of that disguise
    Thankful for a friendly fairies kiss
    No lies ,now lives a life of purer bliss.
    Watch out for a pingback!
