“Poetry is not
the most important
thing in life…
I’d much rather lie
in a hot bath
reading Agatha Christie
and sucking sweets.”

~ Dylan Thomas

sweet
dessert first
vanilla or chocolate
cake, pie, ice cream
delicious

Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)
.
voyeur hides his glance
invading your privacy
grabbing a sick thrill
.
Poem:
.
thunderstorms welcome the summer solstice
birds, bees and trees have a thankful cordis
the farmer amused to hear his corn growing
the stream in the meadow close to overflowing
while in the city there are riots of anarchy
youthful exuberance on the verge of insanity
looting and pillaging just because they can
motives falsely stated by the leftist newsman
no mind, no matter, just worlds apart
just hatred and fear, no loving heart
will the vote bring the country together
or will we be in for some rough weather
will the left take some rights away
can one be punished for what they don’t say
can the conservatives win a peace
will there always be a need for police
why worry, just try your best to be content
write a poem if you really need to vent
we will never know all of the conspiracy theories
just get it done so we can have a World Series

“Poets
have been
mysteriously
silent on the
subject of cheese.”
.
― G.K. Chesterton

Elfje: (Cinquain)
.
reborn
new start
changing bad habits
aspirations for better living
rejuvenated
.
Tanka: 5-7-5, 7-7
.
news to influence
listening to the talking head
opinions disguised
assuming that no one thinks
what can one person do – vote
.
Poem:
.
mermaid kisses and starfish wishes
remembered dreams that are so delicious
light and airy, a contented happy heart
every moment a chance to have a fresh start
whatever happens it is God’s will
don’t give credence to a molehill
for the best life move on and accept
the universe knows that we have wept
relax, no worries, no frown
don’t let the little things get you down
go with nice people and go to good places
kindness is always rewarded with graces
an enlightened soul rolls with the tides
enjoying sand dollar millions and unicorn rides
