The Longest Distance

.

“In philosophy,

as in politics,

the longest distance

between two points

is a straight line.”

.

~ Will Durant

Elfje:            (Cinquain)     
.
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

The Untier Of Knots

.

“The poet is

an untier of

knots,

and love

without words

is a knot,

and it drowns.”

‘

~  Gabriela Mistral

.

Elfje:            (Cinquain)   classic, each word only one syllable

.

kind

be good

treat me fair

do next right thing

love

.

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

.

bawling, sobs and tears

she, who was the drama queen

never to console

.

Poem:

.

searching for my inner strength
for my love I would go to any length
speaking the truth with only candor
never a hint of being a philander

learning that the perfect word is we
in all affairs, to be as honest as can be
to face the good times and the bad
having a trust that is truly ironclad

the deepest feelings, more than a friend
someone on whom you can always depend
the best partner ever for playing charades
a person with whom you can count decades

the heart that will go with me to any length
the soul who leads me to my inner strength
