surreal poetry
Surrealist poetry embodies the essence of poetry itself, drawing upon shocking imagery and lyrical incongruities to comment on the inner-workings of the mind.
Moringa Morning: Birdsong at Dawn
In a land where the mornings gleam, Stands a Moringa, tall and supreme. With branches that stretch far and wide, A haven for avians, where they reside.

Not everything is perfectly aligned and brightness doesn’t await and always shine.. Desperate times come and go, we run and hide, because we can not provide..
CAN’T BE SULKING
Can’t be sulking at your past Grab a Chrome I’ll be the Cast You’ll be stuck just like a glue…. In your head you’re dying fast

Of course when we get there, we hop out of the car and Granny gives us a big hug. All of us. We get our stuff out of the car and go put it in our rooms. When you first walk in the house, you just get a whiff of good Sunday dinner. Chicken mashed potatoes macaroni the whole nine yards. I can't wait to tear this food up after I'm done eating, go to sleep, and get ready to go fishing with my grandpa in the morning. I'm actually pretty excited. Tomorrow should be a nice day out. Hope we catch a lot of fish.

I'm not as close with my grandfather as I am with my grandmother. So I was a little bit reluctant when my mother said I have to spend some time with him this summer. I mean, it's not like I was opposed to it, it's just I don't like awkward situations. And he and I don't really have anything to talk about. I mean we are going fishing though and we both enjoy that. So maybe along the way we'll find something to talk about. Nothing to worry about though because my grandpa is a really cool guy. A stand-up man.

We drive down to the lake and get in our boat that my grandpa keeps down there. He has his own official spot; it's pretty cool. We row out to the middle of the lake. It's a pretty hot day out. Good thing we brought a lot of water. At first, it was slow. We didn't see a lot of fish but then we picked it up and caught a few. Me and my grandpa talked about how I was doing at school and sports. It wasn't as awkward as I thought it would be, it was actually a pretty good time.

We were going to take these home and have a fish fry. We had a good amount for the whole family. I'm glad I went out with my grandpa today. A lot of my expectations weren't what I thought they would be. I thought today was going to be awkward but instead it was a great bonding experience. I can't wait for the rest of the summer and Coven City. Hopefully I can teach my grandpa how to shoot hoops or play video games. That'll probably take a while, but it's worth the wait, I love my grandpa and grandma.

Summertime is rolling around, it's time to head back to Coven City. I've missed my grandparents so much I haven't seen them in about a year and a half or so. I can't wait to see them and for them to see how much I've grown. I wonder if they did anything different with the house. Last time I was there my grandpa seemed like he was planning on building another room to the house. I wonder if he actually went through with it. I guess we'll see when we get there hopefully Granny will cook something good for us to eat.

"Oh my goodness, Bobby! I love your ornament so much. It is so creative. I love what you did with the little sketch designs."
Robbie BalePublished 7 months ago in Poetsmerry (4)
After I was done, I cut out the ornament and began the steps to fold it together. I could either use glue or tape to put it together. I chose glue just to make sure it looks nice and neat. It's looking nice so far. Finally, I have to take some yarn and put it through the punched holes at the top of my ornament and tie them together. I did this with the rest of the ornaments I had to cut out. That way I ended up with four. I got plenty of time on my hands now that I can turn this in early.
