“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

“Poetry is as
necessary to comprehension
as science.
It is as impossible
to live without reverence
as it is
without joy.”
.
~ Henry Beston

Elfje: (Cinquain)
.
awe
to admire
wonder and amazement
overwhelmed with deep admiration
reverence

Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)
.
souls that can reach out
reflect a Higher Power
humble yet sincere
.
Poem:
.
a laugh a day keeps the shrink away
negative depression is a killer
for some being silly really does pay
a sick mind writes the psycho thriller
gratitude keeps the mind in the positive
many are born with the backward brain
pity for those with a mind that is addictive
brainwashing is the best way to retrain
recovery depends upon honest ownership
the selfish and self centered cannot love
alcohol will drown a healthy relationship
chemical dependency is a habit to get rid of
a life guided by a Higher Power
an easy pathway to your ivory tower
