Poefusion Prompt ~ Friday 5 ~ shell, comic book, discarded soapbox, rubber soles, postcard
~
3WW Prompt ~ delayed, edge, focus
~
After a brisk shower dance
The discarded soapbox is left
To let wistful stars
Weep dry
(At least till the same routine
Tomorrow)
And the humble rubber soles
Take a walk
(Or a jog)
On the wild side
Of healthy living
Before knuckling down
To the next routine
Of working
On the edge
Of healthy living
~
Somehow
This monotone lifecycle
This delayed action
Is worth a strip
In a comic book
~
If only we could
Break
The shell
Of "must do"
And dare to focus
Barefoot
In the worlds of "may do"
Or "could do"
~
That would be worth
A postcard

Going through life with a bit of barefooted wildness sounds good to me. I think everyone should have a little fun with life's journey. Nice job. Have a nice day.
Ah, to break the rigidity of our lives - a worthy goal well told.
A quirky interpretation of the prompts. Loved it.
I liked the collage at the beginning and all the postcards at the end, Gemma. The shoe was a great touch.
I'm trying like heck to focus, barefoot in those worlds, what a great way of putting it.
i collect postcard. Thanks for stopping by my page.
love this...
If only we could
Break
The shell
Of "must do"
And dare to focus
Barefoot
In the worlds of "may do"
Or "could do"
it has such hope!

great poem, a enjoyable read
Oh the ending is perfect!!
A lighthearted and whimsical poem, with a philosophical "edge." I like the idea of entering a comic book!
