Going into the Storm

I’ll try not to stress out about Debby
Tropical weather I’ve dealt with before
But this week I’m chasing the clamor

A flight from Houston to Orlando
Awaits me Tuesday morn at seven
I’ll try not to stress out about Debby

Having lived on the Gulf most my life
And a survivor of Rita and Ike
Tropical weather I’ve dealt with before

Though most of the time I vacate
And Disney’s been planned for a year
But this week I’m chasing the clamor

(Please pray for my daughter and me)

3 Word Wednesday prompt

3WW- grace, thin, jittery

For the Love of Sports (A cascade poem)

Grace never wanted to settle down
She much preferred a myriad of men
Spontaneity fueled her lustful desires

Striking: in with looks, out with luck
A playing field, she beat thin scores
Grace never wanted to settle down

Photo trophies saved on hard drives
All the conquests mere victories
She much preferred a myriad of men

The prime of her life, a star athlete
Grace welcomed jitters as basic warm-ups
Spontaneity fueled her lustful desires
