Living
Among shadows
Of the past’s occurances
Alone I face the future
Certain
That my life was not in vain
It was orchestrated
For a purpose
Fulfilled
Butterfly Cinquain
Based on Psalm 138:8 The LORD will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O LORD, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. (ESV)
Sure of your future?
At the time of detachment
Where will you land?
Senryu
Once again the leaves beneath my feet
Remind me of Summer’s recent passing
Some dressed in fall colors
Freshly fallen over night
Not yet devoid of life
Speak of coming days
Full of crisp air
Bringing change
To me and
Them
Reverse Etheree
Living with Deadlines
A Stressed, stretched schedule
Learning to juggle
Senryu
Where ere your journey
Or your pathway might take you
Keep moving forward
Stay focused on reaching
The end of your tunnel
Where you’ll find your freedom’s light
Don’t let obstacles
Detour or delay your purpose
Set your face like flint
Choka
Days fly by
Like birds on wing
Flutter, gone
Syllable Lune
Life
Is short
Waste not.
Time is precious
Record memories.
Capture each moment
But dont dwell there, move on.
Fixate your mind on the future.
Wake every morning and proclaim:
“The Past has no Present in my Future”
Etheree
Thanks to my daughter, Laura, for the last line which inspired me to write this poem.
Time, Money, Life,
All spent daily
How quickly they go
Syllable Lune
Plan
Each day
Keep focused
Just look for good
Remain positive
Don’t fixate on dullness
The world is full of color
Just waiting to be discovered
Live in expectation of goodness
Beauty might be just around the corner
