Kimba sifting
Through his thought processes,
Identifying particles that hinder
A fine recipe for life.

Mom sifts
Through the dirt of the earth
Planting bridges of flowers
Upholding her pondering thoughts and
Vibrant bursts of life’s wisdom.

A wench sifts
Through the paperwork
Of registration at a culinary institute,
The beginning of a confectioner’s dream come true.

Here, in the poetry forum,
We are all continuously sifting
In written form
Through our thoughts and perceptions.

My memories of my mother’s flour sifter
Grab my imagination.

The puffed out metal container
Metal arm held in a salute on the side,
Round red wooden button style grip topping the arm.
Mesh bottom for the processed grains to drift through
To a metal pie plate catcher at the bottom.

“Chik-Chik-chik-
Chika-chika-chika-vsssp-vssp-vssp”
Would sound as the round wire
Sifted through the contents
Scraping that metal mesh at the bottom.

Depending on how fast or slow you went,
The sound like a train starting out slowly
Picking up rhythm and momentum as you go
With a final “tunk-tunk-tunk” by your hand
On the side of the sifter at the end.

The big bopper parody extends his invitation to life:

C’mon over, Baby, whole lotta siftin’ goin on.
I said, c’mon over, Baby, we got thoughts to ponder on!

lol, thanks, D4!

You too, tanya-n-2Kids.

Ohhh Kimba, I'm so glad you like this - WHOOT!

Ahhhh mom, umm, I'm a lil too rowdy for a dough-see-dough, but honeybun, how but a swwwww-ING! ???????? Yup, I used to square dance as a kid and there usually were not enough guys, so I was "the guy" and my sister did the girl's part. Put your left hand on my shoulder and we hold hands with the other one (like a waltz set up or a two-step). My right hand is on your waist. Now, we spin (we'll start slowly). Then at just the right moment, I'll twirl ya under my left arm, as you exit the twirl, we both back out into the general circle and sass-shay our hips and feet to the music as we all circle round holding hands. It's very exhilarating and I think you'll enjoy it immensely!!!!!:banana: :banana: :banana:

Thanks, K. I did have to keep my mind on the kitchen version because the one we used to clear the foundation for the shed was a much bigger upper body/lower back work out for clearing rocks but leaving the dirt and a gold mining sluice box kept trying to finagle it's way in my thoughts; but that, again, is a whole body work out and lots of cool but very different sounds - although both are adaptable with the sifting concept. bigsmile

Ohhh P.S. Sending vibes of strength and loving patience for you and your mom.

I love sifting.....

I panned for gold as a kid, and loved it.... I sifted sand as a brickies labourer, and making mud bricks for friend's homes... I sift through crazy dirty escapee socks... I sift through bottom drawer stashes of photographs... I sift through sounds and scents of times gone by....


I never have to sift through my heart though. :wink: :heart:
