Project 365: (My life - 2011)

[Karen]

Fake flowers set in muted colors
Light gently catching the petals,
Flattering the false blooms with soft light
The way an aging starlet demands
To be filmed through gauze
So no one notices the minor imperfections
That age brings

Great thoughts, Karen! I never saw them that way!

Ominous skies at sunset
Bare branches silhouetted
Against the wrong-colored sky
Gathering clouds and yellowed light
Portends storms a-brewing
Hurry home, hurry home
And be glad for warmth
Even old radiators are comforting
Against the threat
Of a winter storm

Oh yes, you described this perfectly! This storm was brutal, it's been hard to walk against the wind, and I'm still feeling cold. That's why I'm going to bed now, with a hot wheat pillow!

It lies, mysterious, rotund and scarlet
Seeming to hover above the soft carpet
Like some alien craft just landed on a foreign shore
Bold and unbroken
Strong and only slightly marked by its travels,
It sits vulnerable but steadfast
Silently in sight of the slumbering monster
Sleeping in the hazy distance

I've started in March, so two more months to go! But I don't think I'll stop in two months
