Floating in the air
So many sounds surrounding
The Listening Ears
Swiftly capture each word
To bring them into the heart
Tanka
We have been created with two ears and one mouth, therefore,
“…be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:” James 1:19 KJV
Floating in the air
My thoughts can soon
Manifest actions

For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he...
Proverbs 23:7 KJV
Be careful with your thoughts.
“brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy–meditate on these things.”
Philippians 4:8 NKJV
Breath is a blessing
Our life is but a vapor
Thankful for each breath
Senryu
If you have ever lost your breath for a moment I am sure you can relate to this poem.
Having recently had an asthma attack that literally took my breath from me for a few seconds was very scary and made me realize how precious each breath I take is.
Life is short, breathe it in and give thanks for every breath!
August tried to warn
Us of her impending move.
She sent us cool drafts,
Chilling memos of warning.
Yet, wrapped in sweaters
We missed her exiting.
Undercover of night,
With just the moon as witness,
Fall bearing September came.
Choka
Heat wave crashes
High Atmospheric air meets
August sun rising
Haiku
Balloons are nothing without
Air and neither are we.
Life
Lesson:
Our lives are
Only as good as our
Next deposit into them.
Seek to aerate your life daily
Acrostic
Life is like a balloon; you must put something into it to get the best possible results. —William Cranch Bond
Morning sun peeks out
Smell of Spring is in the air
February wanes
