Hello friends,
Five small poems this week. The first two are palindromes that are also perfect anagrams of each other:
TIME TURNS THE SHADOWS, pt. 1
Sun up, still....
A sun I saw.
Time grew old.
A sad, lower gem,
it was in us all —
It spun us.
TIME TURNS THE SHADOWS, pt. 2
Sun us!
I emit wards —
gel still a wan opus,
upon a wall....
Its legs
draw time.
I sun us.
And this third poem is a palindrome-by-word:
TIME TURNS THE SHADOWS, pt. 3
Time keeps forever.
It grows us in light.
The unfurling days see shadows turn.
In turn,
shadows see days unfurling.
The light in us grows.
It forever keeps time.
Finally, two anagram-poems:
THE MAD SCIENTIST (Anagrammed Lines)
The mad scientist's laboratory:
Atomic rays dart, slit the bones.
Robotic analysts read the mist,
as the calibrated monstrosity
rises — that ode, in a crystal tomb.
GALILEAN MOONS (Anagrammed Lines)
Any deep astronomical dialogue
cited, you parade Galilean moons:
Ganymede, Io, Europa, and Callisto.
How lovely - I particularly like Time Turns the Shadows in all its iterations!
