So I feel like wrote poems from these same prompts last year. I might need to up my game for the rest of the month. My dear readers need something new and fresh from me, don't you?

Minimum
Say less, learn more
Accept what you knew before
The veil closed behind your soul
Sometimes being least is your role

Make Your Own Luck
Tuck that rabbit’s foot safely away
Bring forth blessed dice to play
Look for a clover with leaves of four
And never let doom linger more
Make your own luck with treasures you find
That calm your heart, ease your mind

The Moment
This is the moment
Seconds pass, wishes sent
That this goes off without a hitch
No cloud, no rain, no cursing witch
Everyone shows, dreams realized
When the hand so prized
Slips into your own
Clouds part, the sun shone
On this perfect moment
When all see what love meant

For
Working for you to build you up
At last understood, the full cup
Runneth over with more to give
Showing why we choose to live
From touch to touch, kiss to kiss
Hoping we won’t ever miss
These eyes, these lips, these hands
And this heart that understands
But if we agree that love is enough
We will conquer when life grows rough
Against
Why hold out for love when you know
It will only wither and never grow
In a world so cold that love dies
Before the bride even dries her eyes
Yet some say it it will heal your heart
Even though it already tore it apart
So take a stand against love’s lies
And find your hope in your own eyes

Be Better
Be better, choose wiser
Step up to the next riser
No longer content to be runner up
Go for that golden cup
Be the best you, grab those stars
Ignore the pain, accept the scars
Life will let you down if you let it
So if you have a talent, bet it
No one will give you a dime
Simply because you want free time
To be your occupation
So rise up, be a nation
Of those who choose to be more
Earn what you claimed before

Memory
Memories, these fickle things that elude us
As we seek photos that include us
To jingle one more memory free
“Is this true? Was that really me?”
“Did I always stand just so”
“My eyes on him, how did he not know?”
“Proof at last, I made that touchdown”
“I wonder what brought on that frown”
Hair out of place but smile perfect
Let’s make more memories to expect

Funny
How very odd to be called out like this
When never once did we kiss
Yet you claim we loved and dated
Will you need for lies ever be sated.
How very odd to open this door
And find a flaming bag upon the floor
Don’t stamp it out, you won’t be amused
But it might cause snickers to hiding dudes
The passing of one so nefarious
Seems the time for posts curious
That make us laugh as guilt abides
But at some point, truth no longer hides
You amaze me! Keep it up!
