swing
jazz type
to and fro
go the other way

Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)
.
we all need someone
love, the grandest emotion
a reason to live
.
Poem:
.
along came the Coronavirus
delivered to man by the God Osiris
mostly it picked on the elderly
those who were compromised medically
Communist China was the original source
their deception added to the eventual course
the WHO added more misery to the woes
but, the free world were formidable foes
mitigation was begun by social isolation
economies paralized by the duration
in some arenas it was politics as usual
the far left proved themselves very delusional
eventually with scientific and human resolve
the Covid-19 pandemic was finally solved

“You can tell
it’s a poem
because it’s swimming
in a little gel pack
of white space.
That shows it’s a poem.”

reading
or writing
between the lines
ideas that grow horns
poetry

Haiku:
.
the thirsty plant sighs
welcomed spring showers arrive
nature replenished

Poem:
.
cacophony of the house
too many selfish bodies
hard of hearing spouse
each their own secret follies
everyone has their own device
each competing for attention
advertisers vying to entice
subliminal below comprehension
time for a vacation
need to seek the silence
the oceans roar salvation
regaining emotional balance
God teaching me patience
different strokes for different folks
are their steps to teach us tolerance
delusional reality or just a hoax
can meditation stop the noise
who is inconveniencing whom
because they know how it annoys
only made worse because we presume
shut the door
turn out the light
time to snore
say goodnight
