“Don’t

be afraid

of poetry.”

.

~ Clifton Fadiman

Elfje: (Cinquain)

.

poet

who writ

don’t know it

but it does rhyme

verse

.

Senryu: 5 , 7 , 5 syllables with people and their emotions as a subject.

.

anger starts with fear

we didn’t get what we wanted

you took advantage

.

Poem:

.

gentle waves of warm water cover the feet
the sun providing a glorious bone warming heat
any day at the beach will soothe the soul
nature reinforcing that God is in control

evolution is such a marvelous thing
only the crazy to the past want to cling
revolution is not necessarily evolution
anarchy is never a very good solution

peace, make love not war
use science to give everyone more
think of the consequences, not just the profits
believe that the Creator knows more than the prophets

predicting the future we all must agree
it is as easy as following the greed
why listen to entertainers and TV show host
their agenda is not as friendly as Casper the Ghost

today, be kind, be loving and watch what you say
and when all else fails, take the time to pray

Never Serious

.

“Art is the only

serious thing

in the world.

And the artist is

the only person who

is never serious.”

.

~ Oscar Wilde

.

Elfje:            (Cinquain)

.

Dali

abstract realism

very small characters

on very large canvas

surrealism          ..    ..    ,,   ,,   ,,   ,,    (seriously ? ? ?)

.

Senryu:      5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)

.

forever jealous

never content with his own

wanted others things

.

Poem:

.

disorder is the work of an evil spirit
ugly has no bounds or limit
souls that believe they have something to prove
statues and memorials they want to remove

destroying a government is anarchy
believing there is no need for a moral code, insanity
yet the majority are afraid of the minority
defund the police, let’s give evil the authority

the press divides when they take sides
a few wealthy trying to push the tides
there is no need to apologize
peace allows everyone to share the prize

let’s use that energy to make an improvement
let the teaching of history define our movement
let God be the definition of pure order
maybe tomorrow, within our border
