Twenty lemmings
volunteer to go into outer space
with little hope of returning
bravery and desire
for new discoveries
sacrifice and honour
tears shed during their long farewell
waved off to uncertainty
into endless darkness

Lavender dreams
whittled slowly away
leaving an emptiness
hard to define
first love hopes
that once felt true
the desires of innocent youth
spread amongst us

i call it theory

spring again

something
invisible
fills the room

i pretend
it is only
the flowers.

How should we pass
this time away
a game of wink murder
usually brings screams of delight
Or perhaps charades
to test our miming skills
or twenty questions
to baffle our minds

#wink

I’m sexy I think
I’ll say hello, maybe
Give you a wink, but
Old age and the stroke
Overweight and flat broke
I close both eyes
With a long sexy blink

‪I don't want to crow
about all my
fantastic achievements
highlight them
for all to see
take the plaudits
for all that I've done
I will just be
modest
humble
unassuming

The best part of #7SyllableSentence is the engagement between community members. I encourage everyone to like, post and most of all respond and get a dialogue going with all your great submissions.

Thanks for joining!

Weary souls
venturing home
after another day’s toil
a time for reflection
perhaps gratitude
surviving all the day brought

black cats roaming
the toll of the bell
As street lights
shower golden light
as night draws in
