Yoga on Ice - Nifty Fifty

Response to Nifty Fifty photo April 6, 2012

Yoga on ice

Not very nice

It’s freezing cold

You must be bold

Or crazy

To get out of a warm bed

Well, just go ahead

I’ll be lazy

And have breakfast instead

Bacon and eggs

I’ll drink tea to your health

Watching you through the window

Freeze to death

beautiful poem! and purrrrrfect for the picture. I'm still learning the ropes, I accepted it and it got lost with Pam's post somewhere in Nifty Fifty. I'll find it....

I didn't know that you could be so playful, Irina. Love it!

Irina Dimitric Apr 6, 2012, 11:34pm UTC

I can be as playful as a cherub (somewhat aged, though!!!) on a bouncy cloud or as dark as a thick forest on a moonless night. I have some playful poems up my sleeve, just waiting for the right moment. Some of my early poems on Gather are quite playful, I think. I'm glad you like this one, John.

I think I have to agree with John, I don't remember you being so playful. The last two lines were great.

Thanks for posting to the Wall of Frozen Lips on The Triple Name Club where it's now featured.

Irina Dimitric Apr 6, 2012, 11:38pm UTC

Len, I invite you to read my reply to John re my being playful.

Thank you so much for the feature.

Len Maxwell Apr 6, 2012, 11:44pm UTC

That was a neat response.

Irina Dimitric Apr 6, 2012, 11:46pm UTC

Thank you, Len.

Pam Brittain Apr 7, 2012, 2:29pm UTC

Irina, it looks like you're being challenged to more playful writing.

I'm with you - let the bugger freeze! Now, please pass me the toast; and can I have a little more bacon and perhaps another egg? And please pass the coffee pot.
