Different types and forms of poetry I have written
Oh my Mr Fox, why are you there,
Smiling at me without care?
Is it not a momentous offence
For you to be outside that fence?
Flashing that silly,sly stare!
Limerick
I wrote this silly rhyme to go with this image of a little fox that I and my grand-daughter drew. I was trying to learn to draw a fox and she was helping me. I thought he turned out cute so I saved him and added him into my Christmas Village display. 😊

Senryu
Where is hope found?
In the soul dreaming?
In the world helping?
In the heart loving?
On its knees praying?
In all those and more.
Hope is found in God.
Syllabic Verse
Again,
So much sorrow,
And again so much pain.
All I have are prayers and hope
In God
To help,
To heal, to restore, to bind,
To work all things together
For good. I hope.

This day
Cinquain
Childhood sounds of home
Mom always awake at 5 am
Coffeepot perking
“Daylight in the swamp”
Was Dad’s morning wakeup call
Much to my chagrin
Mom’s much used words
You “Always” and/or “Never”
Negative tone
Norwegian songs
Joke telling laughter among
Card game smack talk
Homemade bread
With butter, after school snack
Made with Mom’s hands
Sunday softball games
Family chatter at dinner
Mom’s hot apple pie
Family and friends
Summer picnics at the park
Swimming at the lake
