Long passed
Yet on she lives
Memories and music
The treasures she left behind
For us
Cinquain

Art in Many Forms
Writing releases thoughts of mind and heart
Poetry captures feeling
Journaling reminds, records
Painting lets feelings flow
Dance brings release
Music infuses
Art inspires
My heart

Grand-daughter, her boyfriend and I enjoyed a fun night of music in the park and a Classic Car Show. Grand-daughter brought her ‘85 RX-7 to show off 🙂 and we got to listen to our favorite country music singer too. I love Summer!!
Pencil vs Poodle
Were you a Pencil or a Poodle
Skirt fan, back in the days of rockn’roll?
Dancing slow with The Diamonds
Strolling in a pencil skirt,
Or swing’n the poodle skirt
Jitterbugging with
Bill Haley in your
Saddle shoes,
When teens
Danced.

#MayFalls19 Poetry Challenge Prompt: force of nature
(Just a little poetry promo for my grandson’s upcoming live show performance May 10th in San Diego) 😊
Soaring
Full of lofty goals
I soar higher than the stars
Music in my soul
Catapulting me forward
Until I reach a million dreams
Tanka
(I was inspired to write this poem after listening to “A Million Dreams” Song from the movie “The Greatest Showman” and I added it to a paper collage piece I was working on that the song also inspired me to create😩)
Listen to the Lyrics
Some words on paper
Come alive and touch people
The alphabet will speak
A heartfelt message of truth
To those willing to hear

Sense or Nonsense?
I see the look of the musician,
I think he’s angry at the omission.
He finds it hard to comprehend
Overshadowing the note’s loose end
Causing a chirping like a flamingo
Creating a strange and quirky lingo.
Spoken badly by the blues singer,
Please don’t let this composition linger
Music and song need thought and time
Senses suffer in nonsense rhyme
Rhyme
( I found an online Poem Generator that I decided to try out today. It had me type in nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc and then it generates what is supposed to be a poem! 🙂 haha. However, I took what seemed to me to be complete nonsense and rewrote it to at least, perhaps, have some meaning. 🙂
Any thoughts? What do you think? Does it make any sense or is it just nonsense?
Sound in the City
For a handful of humanity
Scattered in the big city
Working hard to reach their goals
The invisible, the unknown
Hearts came together
Dreams came true
Those unheard voices
Tonight
Spoke
Nonet
Heartstrings
Paled
And poor
Dreams fading
Into the night
He clings to the hope
That his fingers will find
A new sound upon the strings
That will refresh his weary soul
To arise from the blue funk of woe
And dance to the music of his heart
