We said we'd meet beneath the clock!
(But my desire was fleeting!)
So now I lurk behind the blinds,
Avoiding an awful meeting!

FRISKY FANTASY
Oh the delight of frisky weather,
Rain and sunshine both together.
Clouds that scud and winds that skitter,
Sometimes warm and sometimes bitter!
Shades of green that flash and flow,
Dark, then light, then off they go!
Shadows going separate ways
Joined then parted as we gaze.
Hair that flies in all directions!
Fields divided in patchwork sections.
Little flurries of misty rain.
They dampen, then they're gone again!
Trees that widdershin and creak.
Words that fly before we speak!
Laughter as we brave the breeze.
How I loved days such as these.
England is a place of treasures;
Quirky little gems and pleasures.
One of them is frisky weather.
Rain and sunshine both together.

Great one for the day as always, Brenda! This pic wasn't the easiest to come up with something for, but it might have just been the gray doldrums of our mid winter BLAHS!! Hope you have a great week!

Sometimes when the blush is off the rose it's best not to meet again.
Perfect romantice touch.
Loved it!
I feel sorry for whoever was stood up! Good poem!
Aw, she's breakin' his heart, standin' him up. But now he can write a country-western song about it called, "Rejected Again."
I love your "Frisky Fantasy" weather poem. I lived in Ireland one year back in the day and the weather was just like that.
Love your MM! We do seem to avoid unpleasant things.... :O)
Poor guy...
Have a great weekend!

I've hidden behind the blinds several times myself, RR.
Very nice take you have on this ยต-fiction prompt.

Sounds like someone got a case of cold feet!
Such a clever verse! We did have similar ideas, but I like yours better.
A blind date literally! thanks-
An enjoyable interpretation.
I like the idea of someone watching from the window. Great idea today!
Terrific microfiction! I love the image of someone hiding out to avoid a meeting. LOL Your Frisky Fantasy poem is lovely. Beautiful flow of words and images.
I can picture it. A fleeting desire, indeed.
Have a great week.

well done
So many women saw romance with this picture-hmm...it must be getting close to Valentine's Day. Superb poem Brenda!
The waiting game is always a bad game. It's more terrible when you are waiting for nothing. Poor guy.
Just adorable. Reminds me of my youth.
Cute little poem. Very weel done!
I don't know how you can do it, Brenda, poetry day after day. I really admire you for it.
