So a new prompt this week from Ronovan Writes: Charge and Lovers, an interesting combination. I wonder what I can come up with?
Here goes, a funny one, no worries this time Ron, no more tomato balloons exploding, I promise! But, I couldn’t resist the redness of the hearts in amongst the frozen gold coins.
Cash Desk Woes
Frozen cash desk woes
Preposterous charge overflows
Poor lovers tiff grows
My attempt at a more serious offering, this is difficult!
Lover’s Staff
Lover’s purple staff
A battle locked last embrace
Killing life’s sweet flame
Why does everything end up sounding ridiculous? Well, I reckon it’s because I find a cute picture and the seriousness gets lost, oh and I have a tendency to be a bit prone to silliness, I suppose, guilty your honour!!!
Hi.
Welcome to my blog: M J Mallon - Kyrosmagica Publishing. A blog about magic, books, writing, laughter, and much more! I'm a debut writer, my first YA fantasy novel The Curse of Time - Book 1 - Bloodstone is set in Cambridge. I write book reviews on my blog and on Goodreads. I have a penchant for travel and have relatives in far flung places, Australia, Malaysia, and Singapore, (my birthplace.) I grew up in in Bonnie Scotland, in Edinburgh, and now live in Cambridge. I love sunny, hot places, particularly Rome, Venice, Portugal, Barcelona, and I forgot to mention the sun drenched beaches of the Caribbean, how could I? I am lucky to have been blessed with two lovely daughters and a husband who I fondly refer to in this blog as my black sheep. Family joke! With my passion for travel, culture, beautiful beaches, good food, books, theatre, writing, and humour, I hope to keep you entertained. I'm loving every minute of this creative journey, please join me.

Thank you Elizabeth, glad you liked them. Appreciate your comment. 🙂
They’re both nice, Marjorie! I enjoyed the first one most––gave me a tickle. 😀
Thanks Vashti, good to know, a tickle is always a good thing especially on a Friday night!
Ha, ha! I completely agree. 😉
Hi Marjorie, thought I’d have a shot at a Haiku hope you don’t mind?
How much do you charge/Lover of red light areas/When in Amsterdam?
I kind of get the feeling a bit of red madness is descending upon haiku land, thanks for your shot at haiku!
Black madness more like!
Glad you’re admitting to it! I’m still in denial!
