Mary Poppins goth
Spoonful of sugar-not
Agave blue nectar for you
Paleo for dinner
Bert sprays paint
makes graffiti on Sesame Street
when his band isn't performing
You don't like
then go fly a kite!
CinderElla
A Disney do over
Sugar n' spice
can't Save Mr. Banks
Burgundy sun paints new
day-where's my umbrella
CinderElla is that you?!
About time you left the Prince
He had a thing with that Pumpkin
guy, Peter-
Bert is on Sesame Street
'no-nonsense'
hemmed in by youth
Mary Contrary
back to your world
of fog n' rainbows
blurring the lines of steam trains
and future's window
let's have a spot of tea
on my Chamomile carpet
tell me the future
in Lemongrass tea leaves
steeped in 'double quick time'
any elements of fun?
You are "soldier in a petticoat"
this is your look now....
spit-spot yes-time for tea
Must check the weather first...
winds in the east
Mary Poppins is that YOU?
Fireblossom challenged us to write about a piece of clothing! I kinda went over the top-let's blame my sinus infection for my futuristic view. I haven't seen the movie Saving Mr. Banks, but I must say
steampunking Mary Poppins would be fabulous~

As is your steampunk Mary Poppins. Love it ~
much love
Ella, what a delirious transformation of Disney through your unique lens. You have drolly unmasked the dark underbelly of sanctioned treacle through your unique lens. I particularly enjoyed your imprimatur of the CinderElla story.
Sorry you happened to trigger my intense dislike for the Disney brand but I love your poem.
and i laughed out loud at
"CinderElla is that you?!

brilliant writing, Ella!
feel better soon, dear.
♥
Haven't seen you in ages so I thought I'd drop by, dear
Great poems. They make me think of nursery rhymes for the adult audience. Love!
Your references to flavor put me in the mood for some tea and Thai food.
Love, loved these!
This was GREAT....Love the tone and pics. Well done. At least you can function with a sinus infection. I have bouts of sinus problems from time to time and I can't function nearly as well.
I'd go with this idea for a great FANFICTION piece.
BTW SAVING Mr. Banks was awesome. I really enjoyed it!
Poet Laundry-I so want to see this movie-perhaps this weekend! Thank you for sharing with me! Yes, I do think it would be fun to see ;D
Hi Michael-Thank you-that is a great idea! I so want to see this movie-Tom Hanks never disappoints! Thank you for sharing~
A Beer in the Shower-Yes, those Disney chicks do need to toughen up a bit-at least to compete with the evil they always seem to encounter. A lot of sweet n' sour in those flicks-damn now I am craving Chinese food and beer!! Thank you~
Hi Shelly-Thank you and hugs to you!
Cynthia-Your blog looks fab! Sorry I made you hungry-did you go order Thai?! Nice to see you again~ Thank you!
L.Diane-Yes, I can see her blending a lot of old and new ideas. No, they won't be flying a kite-lol
Dezzy-Yes, we all need some sweet! I have missed you-crazy in my world-I will be by!
