55-The Stars Seem Shy

No whisper descends

from the groaning sky,

No scowl wrinkles

the tiring pool,

No true love succeeds

Without struggling to follow the general rule.

The stars seem shy

When leaning down to hear babies cry.

The town hall leers

Its torn shelves,

The cars try

to lose weight

By sending homes

of those absent-minded elves.

Special Note:

Jingle’s feelings was hurt when a particular poet refuses to accept the award, at times, she only requires the winner to nominate another poet for next week, unfortunately, some previous winners could not even be able to meet one of the requirements to nominate a fellow poet, which is the major reason that, Jingle offers this special award to those who are more willing to follow the rules and treasure this as a great honor…if a poet feels that getting this award is a burden, then Jingle loses fun of doing so. No obligations, but if a poet is nominated again but rejected the award previously, there are perfect reason that the award is given to another poet instead,  unless the winner changes her/his attitude on this manner. Sorry. Jingle works hard, hoping to bring encouragement and joy to all of you, if it is not the case, she has to make decisions…

Most of winners have accepted this award with gratitude and honor. Jingle appreciate it. xxx
