Felicity Or Adversity?

Posted on by Leonas Lines

Tanka poem about Felicity. Or Adversity?This one is really not as creepy as it looks! 🙂  The picture was taken one day when my two grand-daughters were just fooling around having fun making goofy faces.  After I looked at the picture I was inspired to write the poem and then, I figured I would add a filter to the picture to make it look a bit more creepy.  Guess this happens to fit right in for a post on Halloween. 😦

Life’s Purpose?

Posted on by Leonas Lines
Mirror Cinquain poem about life's purpose--shadows
Original Poetry by Leona J. Atkinson ©2015 (graphic from clker.com) Based on Psalm 39: 4-7 NKJV “LORD, make me to know my end, And what is the measure of my days, That I may know how frail I am. Indeed, You have made my days as handbreadths, And my age is as nothing before You; Certainly every man at his best state is but vapor. Selah Surely every man walks about like a shadow; Surely they busy themselves in vain; He heaps up riches, And does not know who will gather them. “And now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in You.”
