Elevate The Soul

the soul,


poetry


is necessary.”

you are

from the mind

what’s in your heart

poetry

is necessary

to live

.

Poem:

.

it is nine AM and the spam callers have started
intruding into my life that has been uncharted
empathy, everyone has to make a living
sympathy, it is my part to be forgiving

enjoying chaos, loving the tempest in the tea cup
I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up
the backward brain cannot make up its mind
to God we are all just one of a kind

time will move on, with or without me
a drifting raft in the middle of a large sea
envious of those who own a motor
debating my impact as a one in a million voter

is there a subliminal meaning to any of this drivel
something to do with my head being mounted on a swivel
rumbling, mumbling, stumbling, through one day at a time
can perverse thinking be a punishable crime

pardon me but I am just having some fun
trying not to get caught while being on the run

The Mind

.

“Whatever

the mind

can conceive

and believe,

it can achieve.”

.

~ Napoleon Hill

Elfje:            (Cinquain)

.

car

trade in

brand name loyalty

style versus accessories function

transportation

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

.

fake crocodile tears

sympathy for a hurt pride

empathy deserved

.

Poem:

.

if it is not love, it is the trees
a fascination with the birds and the bees
poetry tells stories and speaks emotions
living life by going through the motions

love is learning to see with the heart
knowing that everyone has a part
the very first step is sharing kindness
common interests will soon lead to fondness

today I’ll love my favorite squeeze
a thankful heart contented to please
together we’ll enjoy the beach and some flowers
going home to watch reruns of Fawlty Towers

there for each other as life does change
ignoring quirky habits others may think strange
happy are they who share love and nature
never to argue with the great Creator

love unconditionally, be a blessing
wear a big smile, it will keep them guessing
