Hidden

Behind the looped veil
another universe calls
for recognition.


Written and produced for Day #29 at Writer's Island.

And talking of other universes, here's another kind entirely- the fantasy world of a Friday 55 coupled with a prompt from the Thursday Think Tank at Poet's United, who suggested Monsters!



Monsters can be scary,
or monsters can be fun.
I know which sort I'd rather have -
a friendly, little one!

It’s when I least expect them
they haunt me in the night,
so usually I run away –
would you stay and fight?

If you would, that’d be good.
You can have my bed tonight!

    Monsters of ANY kind usually appear in the night, it seems!

    Most of the time I would run away...unless I am defending someone I love. Cute rhyme.

    Love them, Jinksy, but is there anything, such as a funny monster?

    Nice one. Extending friendship towards a monster is a daring experiment ;)

    I love the fun little furry cute creatures that pose as monsters. I don't like the ones that stalk us at night. Great poem and the ending made me laugh.

    Hey Jinksy, I love your sense of humor.

    I'll be the brave one and fight those monsters, so you can have your bed back!

    Great poem.

    (Thanks for coming by my blog)
