Poem:
.
he was dreaming of building a rocket while wearing a hat like Davy Crockett no dreams, much to young to smoke a pipe most of the world saw him as a stereotype
mumbled and stumbled through life as a teenager went to college but could never declare a major got drunk and was kicked out of the fraternity managed to impregnate the ugliest girl in the sorority
never confused with being an eager beaver managed to survive as an underachiever alcohol and drugs he turned into an abuse the mean ugly world gave him an excuse
since we love happy endings, we’ll give him recovery finding the truth was a road of discovery he now lives a life that is happy, joyous and free believing in a Higher Power was beginning key
to the still sick and suffering he shares his story to the God of his understanding he gives all glory more sobriety, more keys, more doors to open enjoying the best world he could have ever chosen
Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)

fear creates bigot
one who can never be wrong

Poem:
.
switch gears
change your mind
let go of fears
let yesterday behind
no more tears
to ugly be blind
focus on love
let the sunshine in
do forgiveness a lot of
kindness is a win win
seek guidance from above
never ever sin
to the ignorant show patience
the best medicine is a good laugh
to the stupid extend tolerance
happiest are those who only take half
perfection is to seek the balance
warrant what will be an honest epitaph
relax
meditate
enjoy life to the max
let karma dictate your fate
let every ending be a happy climax
life should, could and can be great
