#JUMBLE TONGUE -- 3rd installment complete with a Prize! The topic is "death" which means spiritual or physical "death" in the most creative and abstract play of words you can think of. Could be an act that results in death, the aftermath of death, or the essence of death, a Eulogy for the dead etc. Writer's choice. "Best" piece chosen by a 3 judge panel of myself and 2 others. Winner gets a custom ready-to-hang 16"x20" canvas with their jumble on it! (Feel free to inquire for details.)

Field of Poppies

Wind ceases roiling innards

gusto broken evermore

quoth the raven, claret beak

dust baskets spirited away

polished holders of rank and file

ferried by sad harbingers

talking heads spouting gabfest

chanting lyrics more than 50

toppers perched marbled dome

somber pumpkins

upside down frown

spiky support cushions

damsels’ hooves

tromping loner rank

field of poppies salted drops

stone icons shout, no sound

white images whisper greetings

garbled readings puffing truth

alone at last, God’s acre.
