Word Garden Word List--Still Life with Two Dead Peacocks and a Girl

 

Hello my little repeated themes! Welcome to this week's Word List poetry prompt which features the same author--Diane Seuss-- as last week but a different source book. This time we zoom three years beyond last week's collection and land at Still Life with Two Dead Peacocks and a Girl, from 2018. 

Chick just won't leave and go home

Everyone seemed to like her, so I figure if something was fun once, do it again, right? Pass me another piece of that cheesecake mmm, remember (I say while chewing, holding up an index finger), moderation in all things is my motto! 

What we do here is to use at least 3 of the 20 words provided in a new original poem of our own (and don't try to squeak by with a haibun). Then simply link up, visit others as you are able, and then paint a lovely still life involving birds and bowls of fruit. This prompt remains active through next Saturday. Enjoy!
