Over at Weekly Prompts, the Weekend Challenge is: Sleep … please visit their fabulous website by clicking on >> Here.
I’ve been busy the last several days, an open mic’ night, a big fun afternoon at the Box Office Cafe (Poem below), Creative Geelong Market Day, and tomorrow morning it’s my Dome Poetry Group’s monthly meeting … And tonight, I am very “Sleepy”
Together in the Box Office Cafe
As is Frankie’s way
In his cute and friendly manner
He invited three young ladies
To join us at our table
And as in Tullawalla’s, ‘a meeting place’
We quickly became cheekily friendly and chatty
They were inquisitive about what I was writing,
and my books, ‘Perceptions’ and ‘Until Eyes Hear Sound’
The three “train-driver” ladies jokingly agreed
“Youth is wasted on the young”
Then, Ivor, Frankie, Carla, Mandy, and Emily
Shared pup-cups, cappuccino, and latte
Along with some neuro-cool glasses
Of vodka, prosecco, and martini
Thanks to the ladies, we had a fun afternoon
Frankie lapped up all their extra cuddles
And Carla kindly purchased
Signed copies of, ‘Tullawalla’ and ‘Perceptions’
