Hurtling down the road to nowhere
at a rate that surprised her
a bump here a bump there
a turn here a tear there
then a fast fast run
a sudden twist
and a long long fall
into the blue blue waters below
heading into the azure land that spread beneath
she looked up to catch
a rainbow smiling from above
a smile that spread across the sky
and hit the earth hard that it bloomed instantly
into a sea of many hues
birds laughed
some trumpeting was heard
heavens had a belly hard laughter
at the antics of the hedgehog!

Wonderful! I love it. The images are vivid and concise, the fast movement from line to line fits perfectly. Nice work? (Is it work for you, or do these poems just spill out? This one seems especially well crafted.)

thanks… I do write from an instinct. But sometimes I wish I could edit and and re edit what I write. They say that it is important to improve the quality of writing. Honestly I don’t do that much. Writing is never work ! So far it has not been, don’t know what lies ahead.
