WEDNESDAY'S WEEKLY POETRY PROMPTS: 7/31/24 ~ A PREVIEW OF COMING ATTRACTIONS

A PREVIEW OF COMING ATTRACTIONS © 2024 - G. Smith (BMI) =================== Friday night at the picture show, The marquee lights are all aglow. He buys their tickets, holds the door, she walks in. They both have the feeling, something’s about to begin.

They pause and look over the concession stand, The next thing he knows, she takes his hand, With popcorn and Cokes they take their seats, As she passes close, he says she sure smells sweet.

The house-lights dim, the room grows dark, And for that split second, they both hear their hearts. This guy and this girl, Their world in a whirl; How will things work out? Do they have any doubts?

It’s a preview, Of coming attractions; A movie trailer of their life; Equal and opposite, Reactions. The lows and the highs, Through the rest of their lives; It’s a preview, Of coming attractions.

The last reel plays and the credits roll, Then they’re out on the square, taking a stroll; Past the hardware store and florist’s shop, At the jeweler’s window, they slow to a stop.

She laughs in a way he’s not heard before, But curfew is coming, so he gets her car door. They pull in her drive, Both feeling alive; And that tentative first kiss, Is complete utter bliss.

It’s a preview, Of coming attractions. A movie trailer of their life. A technicolor dream, Up there on the screen, Not some shadow picture in old black and white. It’s a preview, Of coming attractions.

Happiness and joy, Heartbreak and sorrow; This girl and this boy, Facing new days, new tomorrows.

It was a preview Of coming attractions. A movie trailer of our life. A cactus filled western, A romance about our turn, With me as your husband, and you as my wife. Just a preview, Of coming attractions, No sequel could possibly equal. Our happily ever-after life.

March 30, 2023. Sabino Canyon. We left early to catch a naturalist walk that was a welcome chance to notice new things. Birding has been lovely. I saw my first Pyrrhuloxia (confusing because a male Northern Cardinal was there too) and roadrunners kept popping by. The most fun was panning for garnets in the river, a beautiful creek deep between the stone walls with seguaro cactus. We all found many small garnets and magnitite washed out of the granite.

The Seguaro Cactus is a protected plant species in the American Southwest-but not Texas!. Large seguaros take almost a century to grow to over 6 feet. But grow they must!
