NaPoWriMo Day Three

*

Lakshmi on a Lotus Chariot
by Dot Hearn

Heed the call of cattaiils

huddled together along the bank
standing against the red and gold sky
as the moon descends
leaving sprinkles
of garnet and citrine tears
tumbling together as to coins
of wealth and prosperity
ever growing
peaceful as the waves
and calm as the clouds
calling abundance to my door
with love, dissipation of worry,
and the spirit of generosity.

PROMPT from NaPoWriMo: In keeping with today's status as the third day of NaPoWriMo, I challenge you to write a charm – a simple rhyming poem, in the style of a recipe-slash-nursery rhyme. It could be a charm against warts, or against traffic tickets. It could be a charm to bring love, or to bring free pizzas from your local radio station.
