“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

“For what is a poem
but a hazardous attempt
at self-understanding:
it is the deepest part
of autobiography.”
.
– Robert Penn Warren

.
Elfje: (Cinquain)
.
Happiness
Supreme delight
Attaining considerable good
Manna for the soul
Felicity
.
Haiku:
.
felt but rarely seen
hot or cold the air shimmers
visible seasons
.
Poem:
.
A beautiful thing
a work of art
it makes the soul sing
the flowers in the cart
the bird on the wing
Mother Nature knows her part
today my eyes must yearn to see
and learn what beauty means to me
the subtle curves of the human body
the rainbow displaying all of the colors
the culture that enjoys decors gaudy
or is it natures well camouflaged wonders
beauty grows when viewed from the heart
to touch, to smell, to imagine, satisfaction
is there a real message in abstract art
or just wishing to evoke a shocked reaction
calm, serene enjoying the aesthetic
a positive attitude of happiness
to looking beyond the artificial cosmetic
wonderful memories that are priceless
the real, the surreal, never synthetic
accepting all splendor as God’s kindness
today my eyes must yearn to see
and learn what beauty means to me
ME and the Boss
