“Poetry is nothing
if it exists
only in books.
One has to find it
in one’s own life.”

In and Out
.
in
ones
own life
the ebb and flow
the coming and going
growing to physical maturity
hopefully becoming wise along the way
trying to resolve life’s mysteries
quickly the time has passed
celebrating or mourning
reflecting on events
it’s God’s time
over and
out

“I wouldn’t be surprised if poetry –
poetry in the broadest sense,
in the sense of a world filled with
metaphor, rhyme, and recurring
patterns, shapes, and designs –
is how the world works.
The world isn’t logical;
it’s a song.”

silent
invisible waves
nothing to hear
song of the universe

Haiku:

blessed tradition
celebrating the harvest
appreciation

Poem:
.
poetry is a song
rhyming, lyrical, meant to be sung
meant to educate, to entertain
to flow easily off of the tongue
some aimed at the masses strong
others too obscure to mean anything
best are those with which you can hum along
.
poetry is a song
striking its chords on heart and nerve
for the writer it can be anything they want
for the reader a brand new learning curve
ideas that dance, words that prance
somber and dark or fluffy cloud light
best are those whose theme is romance
,
poetry is a song
stories that live as long as the language does
heroes and villains, the abused and the innocent
whatever it was and always how it is
some do their work even though rhymeless
God said they all needed to be written
the best, the best are those that are timeless
