A wish
Was unspoken
Hid in a heart broken
Until the day God’s voice made it
Happen

March of the Robins
Anticipating
Month of changes
The songbirds return

To You
Are you happy to be?
Do you love your me?
Can you say it’s true?
That you like your you?
Rhyme
In honor of Dr Seuss’s Birthday today, March 2nd
“Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!” —Dr Seuss
Like a Lamb
March enters today
Like a sweet frolicing lamb
A refreshing sight
Haiku
Old Weather Idiom was: “If March comes in like a lamb it will go out like a lion” or vice versa–in like a lion out like a lamb.
After our winter, I was glad to see some lamblike weather today.
Times Come and Go
In just a few hours

With resolutions

Healing
With a prayer and care
God’s hand touches my body
Creativity rises
Senryu
I have been down sick with the flu since Sunday night, I am just now beginning to get some of my strength back
Bug Be Gone
Do not come around
You are not wanted
Flu Bug fly away
I’ve better things to do
Then wasting time with you
Tanka
The Flu Bug Visits
The flu has a hold on me
Its pushed me into a deep dark place
I am trying to crawl out from
Praying for the Lord’s strenght to help
Syllabic Verse
The Schoolmarm
She entered into
A cool snobbish milieu
Dressed for battle
Senryu
“Mary Chase Walker, San Diego’s first schoolmarm. She fought the Copperheads”
Prodigal of Praise
In the grocery store
I passed by a cart
Therein sat a wee child
A prodigal of smiles
Contentedly singing
