the village pump-
in a gurgle
my childhood

Contest hosted by Mick Talbot

a small boy's
head in alphabet soup --
catching a few zzz's

Reindeer wait
   by the pane
I see shapes


A present!
   Santa thinks
I’m asleep 



Smells like mum 
   lent Santa 
her perfume...  ?

Van Gogh’s “Starry Night”

gamboge moon and stars
dance haloed whirlwind marriage
in violet sky

lemon-greens and greys
calm sleeping childhood mem’rys
beneath white steeple

as black cypress looms
past swirling clouds like fleeting
requiem for love.

laughing children throw
handfuls of cherry blossom - -
an old couple kiss

for Susan’s Cherry Blossom contest

Pings on my window
Old clock hung with red and green
Strikes twelve sleepless times

crying 
stretching for the moon
on tip toe

Christmas Eve Morning And Sweet Memories

mistletoe, a kiss
childhood, snowball fights I miss
memories of this

Mama's surprise child —
from our beds we shout out names
like the Walton’s did

Chantelle Cooke’s Childhood Memories Poetry Contest

Since you had one slot left I wrote a short one

summer's golden hot
auntie's made cool lemonade
front porch nostalgia

flowers all the day
in mauve orange and yellow
playing in the yard

lemon meringue pie
and sunflowers are nodding
gilded memories

New technology
Gigahertz and gigabytes
In every pocket

Safety or madness
Design for kids in four years
Undermine childhood

the young girl
turning side to side
toward the mirror

I feel it tugging
Hanging on - It must be huge!
Bluegill, smiles, grandpa

Haiku - For Sara Kendrick's "A Pleasant Childhood Memory" Contest

Drop of water
In the river -
Sound of joy

summer evening
hide and seek
until mom calls

ice cream truck
mom washes
sticky fingers

School bell rings play time
Skipping,Laughing, Chasing, Fun
Happy play, school days.

Playground games;
Children gambol
in the sun.

I’m climbing  
Above the canyon…the sun
Hits  		the 		rocks

I ascend
As 	I 	take 	risk 	after 	risk
UP I GO!

I’m climbing
I 	rely 	on 	my 	own 	strength
I’m doing FINE!

I descend
While	 I 	urgently 	hold 	on
For dear life…

turtles don't fear rain
they don't need red rubber boots--

built in umbrella!

Black smoke covers all
children animals run
but they can't escape

grandmas garden
    wishing on
         dandelions

A black and white horse
My greatest childhood friend
Always by my side

God's criticism towards our life 
Is like a father-&-son relationship
-- he disciplines us well with peace

Ice King
By Karl Marszalowicz

Null in the numbness
Defunct system collapsing
His blight in my hand

Abuses don't melt
Reliving a time of need
Cold words blistered me      
 
Crying icicles
Shattering a childhood
He liked me frost bit

 my chest feels so tight
every breath I take is deep
makes me feel weak 

Divorce has come
Mom and Dad no more
who do I listen to?

a green frog
leaps to freedom –
a boy’s hands

early summer morn 

blueberry pancakes  served warm

apron stained, with love

Please stop child labor
Let the poor kids go to school
Please give them stipend

At the pumpkin patch
We pick apples, drink cider
Life is simple there

We were eight children
crowded in a little house;
and just one bathroom.

Darling cute angel
Darling dragonflies are all over from other directions!
By the cottage-rosary field my little one is all enjoy!
