Breathe deep and dream!
Breathe deep, and face that fear!
Things aren’t futile as they seem,
Breathe deep and dream!
Life is just a balance beam,
Forward steps bring victory near,
Breathe deep and dream!
Breathe deep, and face that fear!

#MayFalls19 Poetry Challenge Prompt: breathe deep
Down below
We dont really know
What swirls above
And dwells thereof
In that starry night
That lies beyond our sight
Among the clouds of white
Floating in a sea of blue
Are things hidden from our view
We can dream and contemplate
Research, study and debate
Yet we’ll not truly know my friend
Until our life reaches its earthly end

#NaPoWriMo 2019–Day 22–Prompt: write an Ekphrastic Poem
Who are you that sits on a self made throne,
That’s padded with a pillow of pride,
Wearing a robe of perfection?
Your know-it-all attitude
And hastily pointing fingers,
Fill the air with dread,
As you speak words
That tear down
Someone’s
Dream.
Reverse Etheree
Postive thoughts
Create the
Stepping Stones
That lead you
To Success
Syllabic Verse
Things are not always as they seem
Sometimes life is extreme
But don’t give up on your dream
In the middle of the stream
Dont let go of your steam
Though water is stirred
Vision blurred
Stay spurred
Try!

#OctPoWriMo Day 19
(Theme based on the famous line from movie “The Notebook”
They said “Just give in”
They said “You’ll never get far”
They said “ You won’t win”
They said “Just give in”
They said “ Don’t even begin”
They said “Who you think you are?”
They said “Just give in”
They said “You’ll never get far”
I said “ I won’t give in”
I said “ I’ll make it someday”
I said “ I will soon win”
I said “ I won’t give in”
I said “ I will begin”
I said “ I will soon find a way”
I said “ I won’t give in”
I said “ I’ll make it someday”
Double Triolet
Written to all the Naysayers from a Yaysayer
“Never Ever Give Up!” “Stand Tall” “Grow”
(When I saw this huge tall tree on my walk the other day these thoughts came to mind)
Walking thru this life
Following a trail of stars
Searching for my dream
