Different types and forms of poetry I have written
Gathering
My mind
Always open
As I go about my day
To gather information for
Sharing
With others
Sifting out the negative it
Stores tidbits to encourage
Help and inspire
Your day
Butterfly Cinquain
It is my goal and hope that I can do this daily, and that is why I write poetry and create art.
Thank you for following my blog.
I hope my daily posts accomplish my goal and that in some way you are uplifted them.
Kenickie,
“Hope your day’s
Peachy keen,
Jelly Bean!”
From, Rizzo.
Syllabic Verse
A bit of humor here today as I am remembering the 50’s and a favorite saying of that time ” peachy keen jelly bean” which was also a line in one of my favorite movies, “Grease”. As I was creating this peach collage today for an Instagram challenge I am participating in, I was reminded of this saying which brought me a smile, so I thought I would share it with all of you. 🙂
Leaping
Into this year.
Marching forward each day.
Never look backward, not going
That way
Cinquain
Humble abode, yet it’s the
One place where I can be
Myself.
Every man’s castle
Acrostic
In 1644, English judge Sir Edward Coke was quoted as saying, “For a man’s house is his castle”.
Today,
An extra day,
What shall I do with it?
Making a special memory
To look
Back on
If I am blessed to be alive
Four years from now, if not,
Then it’s for my
Family.

Just one
Fish in the sea
Of all humanity
Swimming towards eternity?
You matter!
Cinquain
Raised up for what?
To show His power in you!
Declare His name
Everywhere you travel
That’s His purpose for you
Tanka
Based on Exodus 9:16 scripture where the Lord was speaking to Moses regarding His purpose in dealing with Pharaoh. Just as the Lord raised up Moses for that purpose, so has He done the same for all of us who believe.
We all have a purpose. He created each of us to fulfill His plan. Wherever we are today we can show forth His power as we declare His name. It’s not about us, it’s about Him.
I want to help you
But I’m struggling too
I see your pain
And sadness too
I want to help you
But I’m struggling too
So I’ll do what I can
And pray for you
That God Who Sees All
Will help us two
Make it through
Rhyme
I seem to be obsessed
By all the colors of Spring
Bee in my bonnet
I can be found snapping pics
In random neighbor’s yards
Tanka
Today it was so nice out again I just had to take a walk down the block to check out all the neighborhood yards to see how much Spring growth had appeared.
Well I was pleasantly rewarded as one neighbor had an abundance of vibrant
crocus blooming. The bees and I were happy and one even paused for a pic😊
Broken many times
Patchwork heart
Healed by His love
Syllable Lune
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3 ESV
