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
Silly is
As silly does
So silly does as silly
Says on a silly Saturday
So silly!
Cinquain
Trying to be “silly” today and this poem ended up as a bit of a “Tonque Twister”! 😊
Randomly in my head
Thoughts abounding
Think on these things
God’s word reminds me
I take thoughts
Captive in my head

Finally brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Philippians 4:8
Tis true
Life is made of choices
So think before acting
For what we choose determines
Our fate
Cinquain
Stepping
Forward covered,
Wearing the shield of faith.
Walking towards eternity,
In Him.
Cinquain
What do you see
As you walk through this life?
Reality?
Abstraction?
What are you focused on?
As you walk through this life?

The excited butterfly
Shouted at his friend below:
“Fly! Reach for the sky!”
“My time has not yet come”
Said the waiting caterpillar.
Tanka
In its own appointed time, eventually every caterpillar will fly, for it will transform into either a butterfly or a moth.
Perhaps that is the same timing for some people, therefore we should not judge.
To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:…
Eccl. 3:1
“Abide in Me” He said
And I try to Remain
When my flesh groans instead
“Abide in Me” He said
“Wait on Me, do not dread,
Endure pruning’s pain”
Abide in Me” He said
And I try to Remain
Triolet
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. John 15:4
Sometimes
You need to be silly
Featherbrained
Harebrained
Just a little bit childish
It’s just simply fun
Shadorma

This New Year I created a daily Art Challenge in my Instagram account. Each day of the week has a different prompt.
Saturday’s prompt is “Silly Saturday”.
Gee, I was surprised that I had such a hard time being creatively silly! I guess I am always so focused on making meaningful art and poetry that I find it hard to just create something non-sensical. However, I kept trying and did come up with something.
It helped to read some Dr. Seuss and Alice in Wonderland 😊
