Day 25 Falling

Things that Fall

Wispy fog on a chilly night
Apples, acorns, nuts and plums
Autumn leaves, honey locust pods
Raindrops and spring blossoms

Kids from trees, poor ice skaters
Fashion models in tall, spike heels
Parachutists, pussy in the well
Comedians on banana peels

Morality, a countenance
God’s mercy and God’s wrath
The president’s approval rating
Things once in a tornado’s path

Ring around the Rosie players
Sand, water and salt in a game
Bowling pins and dominoes
Tetris shapes, a famous name

Strange things like spiders and fish
Mercury in barometric tubes
Bird droppings, Chicken Little’s sky
A waiter’s dish, a matron’s boobs
