Emotion Is

“Emotion

is the

poetry

of life.”

.
~ Marty Rubin

Elfje:

.

feel
no touch
from the gut
what you may think
sense

.

Senryu: 5,7,5 syllables people and their emotions as a subject

.

gentle emotion
no laugh, no cry, just happy
the best in between

.

Poem:

.

the struggle was in his mind
was he better off dead or alive
to being hopeless he was resigned
it took too much just to survive

drugs and alcohol were a quick fix
too soon the terrible addiction took over
the mind started to play more insidious tricks
peace was an eternal sleep under a bed of clover

he woke up frozen to the ground
could not remember when the binge began
he so wanted his life to turn around
directions were needed to give him a plan

he found hope among a group of drunks
they gave him a book that had a Doctors opinion
it had twelve steps to get him out of the dumps
to a Higher Power he became a loyal minion

four scores plus he continues to thrive
the Group Of Drunks is now his sponsor
a soul at peace, just glad to be alive
to his personal God he gives all honor

Let Your Soul Heal

.

“Give it air

& let the scar

on your soul

reveal itself,

because,

like the body,

it too was made

to heal itself.”

Poem:

.

oodles, oodles and oodles, more goodies galore
what chocoholic could want for anything more
a true paradise is the bakery in a candy store
the only requirement is that you fit inside the door

put the candy along side the check out aisle
guilt will go away when you promise to walk another mile
remember to clean your teeth before you smile
for the obsessed there can never be a stockpile

just buy larger size clothing when you start to get plump
denying your passion will only make you a grump
only the young can do the long, broad or high jump
besides, who wants to be as healthy as Donald Trump

so I’ll have one more chocolate, if you please
just the weird can live on cottage cheese
