“In philosophy,
as in politics,
the longest distance
between two points
is a straight line.”

~ Will Durant

draw
go over
make a mark
not a straight line
trace

Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)
.
acting silly helps
avoiding reality
tense emotions eased

Poem:
.
relax, listen to your inner guidance
God will talk to you in the silence
choose to listen which is the next right thing
God’s choir is provided when the angels sing
prayer and meditation really work
serenity and peace of mind a Godly perk
all efforts designed to bring a spiritual experience
from self will run riot to God’s will with obedience
the silence broken by the sounds of laughter
fitting in to a fellowship that we sought after
a place to learn what is the next right thing
experience, strength and hope which you may bring
work your program, walk the walk
from the heart whenever you may talk
be the person you Higher Power wants you to be
Honest, Open-minded, Willing and free

“There is
a crack
in everything.
That’s how
the light
gets in.”
‘
~ Leonard Cohen

Elfje: (Cinquain)
.
light
denotes love
God’s great creation
ideas that really matter
bright
.
Haiku:
.
howling wind blows east
snow creates whiteout blizzard
life is put on hold
.

Poem:
.
there once was a lady from Minneapolis
her credo in life was happiness
she began each morning with a prayer to God
this wondrous universe she would applaud
a great big smile she always wore
for her being kind was never a chore
her every action showed unconditional love
sharing the graces she received from above
her daily focus was to do God’s will
never to make a mountain out of a molehill
for the sick and suffering she was patient
never took things for granted, was never complacent
for the stupid and ignorant she was tolerant
she was very very proud to be independent
for the misguided she was forgiving
content she was with her standard of living
each day ended with a prayer of gratitude
for being seen and not being viewed
