Don’t Be Sorry

.

“Live,

travel,

adventure,

bless,

and don’t be sorry.”

~ Jack Kerouac

Elfje:            (Cinquain)

.

question

why me

why not me

a Higher Power’s design

everything

.

Tanka:             5-7-5, 7-7

.

do not pity me

God has a purpose for all

love consumes all things

try to do His will

do the next right thing

.

Poem:             The “Décima” is a Spanish style or form of musical poetry
that contains 10 lines of eight syllables.
The style has a rhyming pattern of abbaaccddc.
You (as I have done here) can break the stanza up in abba/accd/dc.

.

the music begins quietly
the beat is measured and steady
the dancers are poised and ready
their steps are made so silently

every move made decisively
all builds to a loud crescendo
no hint of an innuendo
a quadrille for merry lancers

smiles, laughter for band and dancers
finally a decrescendo

The Food OF Love

.

“I have

been used to

considering poetry

as the food

of love”

.

~  Jane Austen

.

.

Elfje:

.

digestable

life giving

body, mind, soul

manna for the heart

love

.

Haiku:

.

tempest in teapot

ruled over by natures laws

minds misperception

.

Poem:

.

what is love but a billion good feelings
what is a dove
but the Creators symbol of healing

what is life just a soul encased in a body
what is a wife
just the essence of what is godly

what is true happiness a life filled with love
what is real meaningful
an effort to live a life thereof

should we endure an existence of contempt
or
should we try to make an attempt
