Ringing of the Bards: Speaking To Each Other

It's time again for the Ringing of the Bards! This time I've decided to play with the titles of submitted poems, and they're organized into pairs that seem (to me, anyway) to speak to each other.

Enjoy!

Accidents Happen: Everywhere Miracles

Sparks: Touche

In a Surgical Waiting Room: Room 9

Shadow Raptors: Covert Love

The Beauty Within: The Power of a Smile

Lost: Write Faster

The Influence of Climate Change: Loose Breeze

Gargoyle: Mime

Hematidrosis in the Olive Grove: Love's Equation

Diamonds Abound: 11's Tears

The Slave of Wealth: Ode to Unselfishness

The Puzzle: Adversity


And now, the source blogs, in the same array:

... (Inconsequential): Inspirations and Creative Thoughts
Shared Haze: Average Poet
Fearful Symmetry: Rickety Contrivances of Doing Good
poetry, philosophy, poetics: Rooted
The Shores of My Dreams: Colorful Prose
Image and Verse: Prodigal Aspersions
Beaman's World: Poetry in a Garden of Fire
Doktor Lapse Eternus: Yuckelbel's Canon
Poefrika: Darvish
The Shamgar Report: Ocellus
Ahmed's World of Islam: Mad Kane's Humor Blog
Daniel Abdal-Hayy Moore Poetry: Other Thoughts


And if you find that the names of the blogs speak to each other as well-- consider that more of the dialogue.

If you enjoyed this carnival, consider hosting a future Ringing of the Bards.
