The Dull Woman Considers Day 1: A Ravishment of Words
They gather early
A street corner gang
Of creative thugs
Looking to pick the pockets
Of my heart

A wonderful start to June with this onw, Sylvia! I wonder what treasures those rogues were able to steal? A lovely read.
Thanks, H.A. I love the word rogue and considered it, but that first assault of poems that are posted seem almost overwhelming to read and thugs won out.

Rofl.
You know us well.
I’m the kind of gang member snapping my fingers and singing, though– like in the original “West Side Story”.
But with less talent.
I can just see you there, shilling fortunes on the side!
Thanks, Tabitha, for reading and laughing at my odd sense of humor.
Love it!
Thanks, Bill! I feel like we stepped off the cliff and nothing to do but fly (or try to anyway!).
You’ve already picked mine!
Aww. You are kindness personified, Mary!
“A ravishment of words” paint a picture. I love the movement in this poem.
Thank you, Dear Lee!!
We aim to please, Sylvia 😉
Love love .
“Ravishment”

Thanks, Coleman! That first rush of poems is almost too much to handle.
LOL
Hahaha Love it, Sylvia
Thanks, Joseph!
Midnight of May 31 into June 1 is like a second New Years, I swear
Exactly, Philip! Good way to compare it!

Yes, Groupie! Keep the phoebes coming!
I love the dull woman!

A street corner gang
Of creative thugs
And more dull women to come. What fun!
Very nice
Oh yes. It’s overwhelming but in the best way!
your poem serves to inspire us to want to be part of this gang
What a fun poem to start off with. Can’t wait to read more.
This took a turn I did not expect! Lovely!
