Wink of the Water God

The sea glistened from the light of the moon.
Dice's "Nightmare" played on the casette.
When lightning flashed and thunder roared with the tune
In no time, everything was threatened to be wet.
The footprints in the sand began to fade.
Shooting stars darted in a blink.
Chaos dawned upon the world, I'm afraid.
All because of that god's wink.

This is an amazing use of the images on the 9 dice. Congrats to you on your poetry skills! I really enjoyed your entry.

Journey

The star fell through the needle,
Into mini star confetti.
They fell into my cocoa.
I slurped them like spaghetti.

The idea hit my foot,
And made it tap to a new rhythm.
First across the floor,
My feet carried me along with โ€˜em.

I spun the compass rose,
and traveled round the world.
I sailed through fog and calm
And saw new horizons (plural).

I sent postcards to my people,
Saying โ€œWish you were all here.โ€
But, was back home quick as lightning
With my memories of โ€œThereโ€

As I toss the dice of mystery,
I wonder what new destiny might land.
But next time I travel round the world
Weโ€™ll go there hand in hand.

Review ๐Ÿต

Epic portrayal this week @pyrowngs! You took me to another world (one with spaghetti) and I was immersed in the atmosphere you created in your poem. From start to finish, you rocked this week's challenge! Thank you for your efforts and skills!

Gypsy Soul

Shooting stars and lightning bolts
to guide the way of gypsy souls.
Rolling dice to choose their way,
by dead of night or light of day.
Which direction will they go?
From day to day they do not know.
They travel not by credit cards,
but by their skills, as did the bards.
The footprint that they leave behind
is magic of a special kind.
They fill their hosts with joy and mirth
as they travel on this earth.
If your life seems to suppress
a gypsy soul you may possess.

Review ๐Ÿต

Hands down the winner for this week! This poem is flowing, glowing and full of passion. It creates a tone that speaks "gypsy". Congrats on your amazing poet skills, @japhofin8or, you are truly a great poet and bard!


All the entries this week were enjoyable to read! ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜ƒ ๐Ÿ˜„

Thank you so much for participating in PDC3K this week!
*Disclaimer: The winners are based on the entries which I think are the best. I am not saying anyone is a bad poet, I will not say that. Instead, I seek to offer you my encouraging and supportive feedback as a fellow poet. My opinion takes into consideration many things that can add or subtract to the value of a poem, including:

  • grammar / Does it make sense?
  • flow / Are there any unclosed loopholes that leave me confused?
  • rhythm
  • rhyme
  • imagery / Can I imagine the pictures the words paint?
  • feeling / Does it cause a reaction?
  • and emotional pull / Do I suddenly have an opinion?

Would you like to judge or co-judge this week?

Yes I am the only judge of the poetry dice contest right now, but I am wishing and hoping someone else will want to join in and take a turn, too. Two or three heads are better than one, so if you would like an opinion too, please let me know and we can chat up which poems we like best for the week and why.

Please Note: Judges are excluded from winning prizes in the contest they are judging for that week. Judges are, however, encouraged to craft their own poems to the roll of the dice, if they choose.


I also curate poetry and posts with the tag #onehumanbasket
(I am not a ๐Ÿค–)

A letter about me, to you...๐Ÿค“

Friends and neighbors,

Hello everyone! I am Robyn and I hail from North-Eastern California (straight forest). I just completed year 8 of 8 in my commitment to the Oregon Army National Guard. I was a motor transport operator, while on duty, and I loved it. Now I cab drive in my spare time to make extra cash, but hopefully not for long. I will never forget the feeling of operating a large tractor-trailer.

I lived in the great city of Portland, OR before I moved to Corvallis recently. I changed my major from architecture to business only after I did two years of acting. The theater and the independent film scene in Portland is strong and healthy. Acting helped me to learn how to work intimately with others. I have starred in one independent film and played minor roles in others. But, I am also a mom to one, precious little boy child.

My current goals are: 1) to freelance employment under my new business name - Errand Jockey Services, 2) to finish my senior year of school and obtain my BBA, and 3) to be the best Mother I can be for my young son. I have completed an internship for a national business office and I also have experience in medical records and finance. I am super excited about what I bring to the table and I hope it will all pay off in the foreseeable future.

What exactly do people want from me? And what are they willing to ask me for?

Going beyond market research and qualitative trends, psychology is necessary to my business. My personal research on Freud and Jung and the study of my own emotions and behaviors have proven quite valuable. Alongside that, my training in the military provides a firsthand witness on the importance of emotional awareness and resiliency. I know I have changed the lives of my fellow servicemen, as they have changed mine. Understanding basic, human psychology contributes to good people skills, along with acting, and improves my service.

Now that I am launching my own offering, being equipped to manage emotional triggers and to recognize them in others is a marketable skill. My experience raising my autistic son contributes breakthroughs to what motivates and interests him. Adapting a biological approach to P.T.S.D. and sensory processing disorder, I believe our minds associate negative experiences with contributing stimuli. Identifying and managing these possibly harmful stimuli allows me improve my clientsโ€™ satisfaction.

With this awareness, I hope to aid my clients above and beyond their general errand needs. Sometimes we all need a little help. I believe humans are designed to thrive on inter-dependance. I enjoy assisting. I know a helping hand can make all the difference in the world, and I am here to offer it. Our differences should be celebrated and respected. Letโ€™s collaborate and make future breakthroughs together.

Sincerely Yours,

Your Personal Assistant -
Robyn Schreiber, Errand Jockey Services
