ONE A DAY #13

The Poem a Day Challenge invites poets to produce a new work every day during April, so this is an offering for Day 13, which teams up with Tess Kincaid's Mag 164. 

Will Love Find a Way?





"It's great overlooking the town!
 But say, dearest, why do you frown?"
 She replies, "Well, I fear
 now that we're up here
 I cannot see how we get down."









 Spring, 1935 by Kuzma Petrov-Vodin

    Succinct, if a trifle worrying! I think I have vertigo in sympathy...

      I never thought of that! And Miladdo in the yellow vest doesn't look like he's up to thinking of it either.

    I think a landslide might occur any minute and solve their problem, judging by the edge of that plateau! Worrying, as Trellissimo already pointed out...

    Nice rhyme! and yes she could shove him overboard as you suggest- but I fear she might end up against murder!

      Well . . she might want to buy a hat that doesn't clash with her dress quite so violently.

    A fun take on the prompt! Reminds me of enjoying the ski lift ride up and then realizing now I have to make my way down!

Thank you for stopping by. To make life easier for you I have turned off the new indecipherable and time-wasting verification words. Would you care to "feedback" to Blogger and complain about them, like I did?
