“For last year’s words
belong to
last year’s language
And next year’s words
await another voice.”
.
~ T.S. Eliot
.
Elfje: (Cinquain)
.
trash
man’s refuse
unneeded and unwanted
a treasure for nobody
garbage
.
Lune: 5 / 3 / 5
.
listen everyone
pending storm
very quiet night
.
Poem: sonnet: the weather
.
thunder rolls past every afternoon
daily showers bring humidity
gulf winds bring in the monsoon
stifling weather breeds stupidity
lightning kills more than all other storms
It never rains on a golf course
best time to dig for fishing worms
rain cannot wash away remorse
weather the topic, safe to discuss
accept what it is without making a fuss
some like it cool, some like it hot
easy, just move to your ideal spot
change is the only thing you can expect
without having to be politically correct

“I too am not
a bit tamed,
I too am
untranslatable,
I sound my barbaric yawp
over the roofs of the world.”
.
~ Walt Whitman
.
Elfje: (Cinquain)
.
trash
what waste
another man’s treasure
artifacts for the future
garbage
.
Haiku:
.
leaves fall, birds migrate
the sun lowers in the sky
cold winds will arise
.
Poem: Rondeau
.
A (R) who could ask for anything more
A no need to keep score
B a soul who is a true friend
B beside you to the end
A an oath you both swore
A hanging together was never a chore
A excursions a subject of local lore
B one on whom you could always depend
R who could ask for anything more
A a mate willing to pull his own oar
A a buddy to pick you up from the floor
B for the best in life we all intend
B never ever a reason to pretend
A kindred spirits together they soar
R who could ask for anything more
