Unlimited Holidays

Hey Gang!  Today's prompts were right up my alley because when I penned my old blog (TheUnseenUndine) one of the things I was into in a big way was weird holidays.  As it happens, today is 'Make Up Your Own Holiday' which is what the March Challenge is all about.  Additionally, Writer's Island's prompt today is 'unlimited' which is, well, pretty unlimited as far as writing a poem is concerned.

So, first, I'm posting a quick (and rather tongue in cheek) 'unlimited' poem, followed by three holiday poems.  The holiday poems are, in order of appearance, 1.) real 2.) bad and not real and 3.) fun and not real (but maybe should be.)

Unlimited

“All I want is a warm bed and a kind word and unlimited power.” ~Ashleigh Brilliant

I don’t ask for much

but if I had to pick one,

power works for me.

Cherry Blossom Day

Today is the National Festival of the Cherry Blossom.

Isn’t that awesome?

###

National Paper Cut Day

We celebrate this day not with parades

but rather (OUCH!) with Band Aids.

###

The First Annual Push Pin Celebration

Today marks the holiday creation

called the Push Pin Celebration.

It’s a day where we reward

those things stuck in your bulletin board.

Have a picture, card or saying?

Use the push pin for displaying

all those things with deeper meaning.

Tack ‘em up for easy screening.

Prettier than plain thumb tacks;

fill your board up to the max!

But bear in mind when pinning goals

these pins will leave some tiny holes.

Nonetheless, the fest begins -

let’s celebrate those great push pins!
