Trying to go back to the beginning
Have to find away to erase
Need to change what happened
While in my genesis place
Looking for a way
First errs to chase
But its gone
Without trace
Can’t.

Trying to go back to the beginning
Have to find away to erase
Need to change what happened
While in my genesis place
Looking for a way
First errs to chase
But its gone
Without trace
Can’t.

Things are not always as they seem.
What we see may not be what is.
Sometimes eyes play tricks,
And our mind does also.
We need to ask ourself,
Is reality
Truly what
My eyes do
See?
Nonet

The sweet smell of the Honeysuckle
Wafted up, waking my senses,
Lulling me to stop awhile
And drink in the fragrance
Of the tiny white
Blossoms amid
The green leaves
On the
Fence
Nonet

So much work just waitin to be done
But sometimes a girl is
Just gotta go have fun
Tiptoe thru tulips
And sit in the sun
Do something
Never done
Enjoy
Life

I once was you before you were me.
If I’d known then, what I know now,
I would have told you this:
Remember your creator
in the days of youth,
And listen to
Your parents
Stories,
For
Times
Will come
When you will
Wish you had done
All of that and more.
I would have told you
To plan well for your future
Since someday you would grow old,
Wish you had, but it would be too late.
Nonet and Reverse Nonet

For those who are willing to seek
Treasure can daily be found
The Scriptures are an oyster
Holding pearls of wisdom
Pick up your bible
And open the pages
Within them
You’ll find
Pearls
Nonet
A foraging army boldly flew
Into my area of wet green,
Peaking the interest of one
Gray squirrel long and lean,
Who romped about
And in between.
A nature
Convene
Live!
That I am thankful everyday
For you who visit and say
Kind words, compliments pay
Thanks for things you say
Stars of “Yay”
I will say
Alway
“Yea”
Rhymed Nonet
I don’t often have time to visit your sites to read your writings and view your images but when I do I am always blessed and inspired so I just wanted to say “Thanks”to all of you who take the time to visit my site. I appreciate your visits, likes and comments. Blessings to all of you.

Where will you be at the last trump’s sound?
Will you be above or below ground?
Tis a question To consider…
Whether hither or thither?
However we ponder,
Of how we’ll go yonder,
We can’t know,
Til we,
Go.
Nonet
#NaPoWriMo 2017 Challenge today was to write a nine-line poem. I chose a Nonet, which I also rhymed.
Image is an “Angel’s Trumpet” Flower which I had the pleasure to see and photograph at a recent visit to a Spring “Garden Palousa” Event. The plant’s name caused me to ponder upon the scripture verse in 1Corinthians 15:51-52
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
