A tryst that wasn’t

Off they went into shroud of mist
a day break tryst
no prying eyes
no need for lies

So inviting; fruit forbidden
they were smitten
gentle, morn light
oh so quiet!

Alas! raucous birds‘ noisy racket
they pulled jackets
traced back their steps
their tryst a hex!

Written for Sadje’s wdys, David’s W3 to Lesley’s prompt (a humourous minute poem) and Eugi’s moonwashed weekly challenge.

(Will catch up with reading tonight)

  1. A lovely write, Punam! ❤ But what a shame it didn't go according to plan. The image looked ominous from the outset though. I hope they made it home okay even if not together ❤

    1. Sunra, many thanks and congratulations on being chosen as POW last week. That sonnet was so good and totally deserving.❤️
      I am so sorry I couldn’t find time to write to your prompt.
      Next time, for sure, will give it a shot. ❤️
      The image is ominous and I had almost written something for it but due to paucity of time I combined two prompts and the sinister became comical. 😅

      1. Thank you, Punam! And no problem, don’t concern yourself at all! Writing time is precious, so replying and honouring fellow bloggers posts/prompts on top of that takes even more! Wishing you a great week, my dear ❤

    1. Hi, David! Thanks so much for letting me know. I am sorry I couldn’t participate last time. I am still responding to comments I received ten days ago but I will surely try this week as I have time till Sunday.
