Field of Flags—represent Oregon’s fallen soldiers

In memory of your

Faces we no longer see,

Who fought to keep us free,

Souls so brave and true, now gone,

For our freedom we thank you.

Ekphrastic poem about a drawing of a mixtape cover — Original Poetry by Leona J. Atkinson ©2015
Original Artwork by Victoria Noelle Marcin ©2014
When Dreams Become Reality Mixtape by MARCIN ©2014

An EKPHRASTIC is a poem that tells about a painting or photograph so as to describe it visually–no particular form.
I wrote this poem to describe my grand-son’s first mixtape cover which was drawn by my grand-daughter.

Admonition

Posted on March 5, 2014March 5, 2014 by Leonas Lines

Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.
Stay within your newly found locus.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Don’t listen to all their hocus.
Remember when tempted, the hard battle that you fought.
Keep your focus, keep your focus.
Though others may, you cannot.
