Morris the Queen
Sits upon our hearts
None other can take her place
Morris the Queen
Senryu
(Tribute to Morris, my grandson’s cat, who is about 12 years old now. He got her as a baby kitten and though she was female he. Ames her Morris because she looks just like the famous Morris on Nine Lives. She has truly been a wonderful family cat.)
“Hard Row to Hoe”
In a hard place.
Life is full of rocks.
Trying to dig.
Determined.
Seek to make a difference.
A “Hard Row to Hoe”.
Not giving
This “Hard Row to Hoe”
Victory.
I will win!
I will not ever give up!
I will overcome!

That first look
Into eyes of blue
Quizzical
Admiring
Rescued from a bad dream by
The awakening kiss
Shadorma
(This poem was written in response to a suggestion made by our poetry class instructor. She said to imagine what Snow White felt like when she first opened her eyes after the Prince kissed her. So…I imagined…and this Shadorma was the result.😊)

Choose Wisely
“Death and life are in
The power of the tongue”
Consider this daily
Before you unlease words.
Of which do you choose to speak?
Tanka
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. Proverbs 18:21

Fill horizon,
Painting the evening sky,
Muting earthly activity.
