Vinca bloom
A morning delight
Overnight
While I slept
Beautiful posy in sight
Ahead of Springtime

A Winter’s Delight
Cabbages and Kale
Wear Ruffles and Pearls
In the land of kings
They dance til dawn
While sparrows watch
And nightingale sings
Their splendor soon fades
As warm breezes kiss
And sunshine brings
The end of Winter’s ball
And thus herald in
Sights which are Spring’s
Rhyme ( 5 syllable lines/abCabC
Full of Good Cheer
December
Enters bringing
Joyful exuberance
Common days are filled with
Delight
As pleasant sights and sounds abound
And a giving spirit
Enters our hearts
Again
Butterfly Cinquain
Enigma
In the morning light
The Designer
Created a masterpiece
Upon a wall of white
With no rain in sight
His Crown reflected
Seven prisms, His Signature
A gamut of delight
For mine eyes to gaze upon
Riddle
Can you guess what I saw inside my house on my wall of white?
Dreamin’
In a
Gingerbread House
My life is oh so sweet
On Candy Cane Lane, where
Gumdrops
Stuck in gooey icing so Royal,
And dancing Sugarplums
Everyday
Delight!
Butterfly Cinquain
Happy #GingerbreadHouseDay
Solitary Rose
Ah, so lovely
Scalloped petals
Blushing pink
Single bloom
Kissed by Summer’s sunshine
Captures my heart
Shadorma
On My Daily Walk
White roses greet
Squirrel and birds in a tree
Charming bench for rest
Many delights for my soul
God offered me today
Tanka
Underneath The Tree
Mere weeds they may be
Yet a colorful delight
Dancing with the wind
Haiku
Neapolitan Sky
Original Poetry by Leona J. Atkinson ©2016
I was inspired to write this Haiku after seeing this photo posted in a group called “Cloud Watching and Beautiful Skyscapes” that I belong to on Facebook. As soon as I saw the photo I thought of Neapolitan!
Michelle, who took this photo, gave me permission to post it here on my blog along with the Haiku I wrote. I am so glad to be able to share this beautiful sky photo with you and the Haiku as well.
