“Oh! That was poetry!”
said Pippin.
“Do you really mean
to start before
the break of day?”

Elfje: (Cinquain)

cynical
can’t believe
a sneering incredulity
derisive comments delivering harm
sarcastic

Haiku:

brilliant star lit night
are other worlds out there
God speaks in silence

Poem:
.
how insignificant man is
here today, gone tomorrow
there are no answers to the quiz
best to just go with the flow
the closer we get to how it works
the nearer we are to self destruction
self will just one of man’s many quirks
will creation survive deconstruction
think positive, enjoy the moment
control is limited to one’s attitude
keep praying for God’s atonement
think of the now as a pleasant interlude
happiness is proportional to acceptance
kindness is the foundation of love
know that the present enjoys your attendance
faith, there really is a design from above
