The Tree Of Life
Tree
Of Life
Nourishes
Branches extend
To reach the nations
With leaves of healing
Planted beside the River
Of Life in Heaven’s Paradise
Bearing twelve fruits for Overcomers
Who will dwell in the New Jerusalem
Providing supernatural provision
As they eat eternally from its abundant supply
Observe then, and believe this wonderful truth
The Tree of Life
Can be for you
Accept Christ and
Live eternally
Tree of Life Poem/Shape Poem
Based on scriptures: Genesis 2:2, Revelation 2:7, Revelation 21:2, Revelation 22:2, Ezekiel 47:12

Seashore Sunset Senses
Breathing in so deeply
Scents of seaweed and crisp air
As gulls seranade
And ocean foam caresses
Sand covered toes
Sunset glistens like gold
Shimmering on waves
That meet rocks and waiting cheek
With a salty kiss goodnight
Choka
challenge is to write a poem that includes images that engage all five senses. Try to be as concrete and exact as possible with the “feel” of what the poem invites the reader to see, smell, touch, taste and hear

Bird Ballet
Dove seranades

Morning bird watching
Haiku Horizons Weekly Challenge Week #217 Prompt: Tune
(Off Prompt)
Sweet Sound
“All healed”
Is what I heard.
Doctor’s smile and good words
Are a gift many don’t receive.
Blessing!
Cinquain
“when you hear it, you write it down.” Today, we challenge you to honor this idea with a poem based in sound. The poem, for example, could incorporate overheard language. Perhaps it could incorporate a song lyric in some way, or language from something often heard spoken aloud (a prayer, a pledge, the Girl Scout motto). Or you could use a regional or local phrase from your hometown that you don’t hear elsewhere
Imagination Land
Sitting backwards in a corner of my circle
Wearing my Saturday best
I watched as the stars rearranged themselves in the sky
To greet the sun rising in the west
So awestruck was I
I barely ducked a herd of pigs flying by
One of them wearing a polka dot vest
Laughing at me in jest
I turned my back on time as it faced me
The clock striking thirteen in protest
The circle I was in was becoming a square
As a mouse was put to the test
To eat an elephant for lunch
Feeling stressed at his first munch
I was glad I was just a guest
In this imaginary backwards land of reverse
And now I’m choosing to end this verse
Nonsense Rhyme
NaPoWriMo 2018 Day 22
Prompt: Today, I’d like you to take one of the following statements of something impossible, and then write a poem in which the impossible thing happens:
The sun can’t rise in the west.
A circle can’t have corners.
Pigs can’t fly.
The clock can’t strike thirteen.
The stars cannot rearrange themselves in the sky.
A mouse can’t eat an elephant.
Narcissus
Sakes! Can’t you see
Its always all about me!
Narcissus blooms first!
Lady Spring aptly chose me,
Her number one bud to be.
