February challenge

Spider


Silky spun trap

Oscillating violently

Can’t get out of that

Said the spider triumphantly

Tonight I’ll be fine dining

Eating of my victims corpse

Followed by a drink

Fly brain wine of course



Dreams


I live for dreams

In my head fantasies

When I wake

Life becomes real

Wars, famine, flood appeals

Let me dream

Until it’s all gone



Listen


Please listen to me

Said the garden

To the sky

Remove your clouds

So the sun can shine

I like all three of your poems posted above. Well-constructed, entertaining, and to the point. All good features for readers with short attention spans.

Quirky and humorous- right up my street. I too dream of waking up and avoiding the groundhog day newscast of war, famine, flood, scandal, repeat.....
