Amber Jumps!

My Perfect Match

This is the exact same thing that happened with me and my perfect match!

A Cheer for Amber by Court

I just got a new phone and in trying to figure out the video recording I, well . . . didn't. So it's sideways and I don't know how to fix that. If you do let me know. I love it though so I will post it anyway, with Court's permission.

Your Turn

I just spent an entire month blogging poems.  Now, it's your turn!  I won't leave you to it completely on your own.  I'm posting a picture as your prompt.  I would love to read a poem inspired by that picture from all of my readers.  Post it in the comments, or on your own blog and I will totally link to it!

Day Thirty "Communication"

Communication

You spoke your mind, now your concerned
That what you meant just wasn’t heard
You’re so frustrated; things don’t make sense
And now you’re acting on false pretense
Dear why don’t you come and tell me
All of your troubles and sorrows and fears
If you are candid and I am sincere
I know both of our hearts it will cheer

You walked up to me, and we embraced
I saw the smile on your face
We talked about it, and then we kissed
And your frustrations they were dismissed
Dear remember that I love you
Even when we do not always agree
And your happiness is my only plea
Because you mean the world to me

Day Twenty-nine "Word Verification"

Word Verification

I got online to read a blog my friend had posted yesterday.
The things she wrote were so profound, I had things I wanted to say.
So I proceeded to leave a comment on her clever post,
But much to my surprise I had to type a word to prove that I was . . .
Human?
Well, croxisma and ochipent do they think that I’m a ghost?

It was a crazy comleac, but I figured I’d consent
To type a porkenry racra word and my opinion represent.
So, I tried wingsto and cattedi, I even tried splogdew,
But the words I typed would not prove that I was . . .
Human?
Well, ofunble and indedfor it would not let me through!

I really liked the post she wrote so I said a little prayer
That the imaritic and nalteria would finally get me there.
I typed slowly and deliberately that I might prove authentically
Despite the siturn mobefi, indeed I am a . . .
Human!
The word that let my comment post, “Sally.”

Day Twenty-eight "A Tribute to Casey"

A Tribute to Casey

I have this friend; we’ll call him Casey to protect the innocent
The other day he came to me and said, “Dear Amber, I must repent.
For I have been telling everyone that I am really cool.
I have been saying people have said that I totally rule.
But these things are so not true.
And lying kind of makes me feel blue.”

I thought about the things he’d shared.
I had to act like at least I cared.
And then I offered this advice
Hoping that it would suffice.
“Dear Casey, take a chill pill friend. You’re only kind of smart
But kind of is good enough. Well, at least it is a start.”
