These Sugary Words
by Soul Places | Diane Ludeking
The words, the words, the words.
The words are full of sugar.
These sugary words
fix my cravings
for chocolate and ice cream.
These sugary words
bred from crispy kale
and green smoothies
and cheese.
Sweet and true and scrumptious,
these sugary words
defy gravity.
Leave me hanging
naked
with views from outer space
a planet so strange and distant.
These sugary words
attract four eagles
and tears.
Two eagles remain
to circle and circle
to partake of
my sugary words
and give me more.
These sugary words exclaim
Welcome back!
as they slip away
behind the trees.
Welcome Back Welcome Back Welcome Back the Words!
Yum, Yum!
Wow! Yes…welcome back! You inspire me, Diane.
Thanks Karen! The feeling is mutual.
sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Indeed! Thanks Mokasiya.
I’ve said it before Diane, and I will say it again. You have a way with words. Beautifully written.
Thank you so much, Turid!! I’m flattered.
Very nicely done, Diane. You have a special way with words. Thank you for sharing your gift with the rest of us. xoJulia
I’m blushing, Julia!
