Jewel
She softly and sleekly pads
Her way through the snow.
Her fur shines black, orange,
Chocolate, and White. Her eyes
Are subtle and clear, speaking of
Intelligence. Later, she will
Curl into a tight ball, her head
Tucked into her side
And her paws are tucked below her.
Naptime is over and she is ready
To go out and play. Bring on the ball.
Bring on the string.
Haiku
Crystal clear water
Flows gently and swiftly down
The vast mountainside
Soft whispering breeze
That flows over the earth and
Changes suddenly
Leaves fall about the
Earth bringing with them the most
Amazing colors
Cinquain
Vivid
Stripes of colors
Show as the sun begins
It’s slow descent into the night’s
Twighlight.
Swiftly
Moving through life
As all thoughts are centered
On staying happy and sure of
Oneself.
You
I sat there waiting for you,
My thoughts reflecting on how we grew.
We were called the perfect couple,
At first, you seemed so subtle.
You bought me gifts,
Gave my spirit a lift.
You’ve been there, through the thick and thin,
I’ve learned to trust you again and again.
We celebrate everyday.
You have taught me to love life,
And hope someday I’ll be your wife.
Together forever, ‘till death do us part,
I’ll never, ever let you out of my heart.
Zeus’s Mess
Zeus’s yellow xylophone
With violins undertone
Trying sporadic rhyme
Quietly producing opposing
Non-melodic lines
Kicking joined instrumental
Horns going flat
Ensembles do compose
Breathtaking accompaniments.
Tanka
Peaceful love shatters
All who do not understand.
How to keep within
The fiery passions that
May consume those not cautious
Tall willow branches
Hang down in front of us as
We sit together
Sharing our love for life and
All that makes us who we are
Poems
A poem a plenty, a poem a few,
A poem that’s old, a poem that’s new.
A poem expresses the words that aren’t said,
And is rarely appreciated before the poet is dead.
A poem is happy, a poem is sad,
A poem is good, but this one is bad.
Nature’s Breath
The soft wind whispers
Slowly and surely through
The rivers and valleys.
The sun shines and it’s
Rays hit everything
In sight, but it leaves
All shadows elsewhere.
The water flows through us all,
Tying us together for all eternity.
Friendship
Free spoken words to help us
Relax when near one another.
It feels as though
Everything revolves around us.
Never underestimating the Bonds that form
During our everlasting memories.
So that we would be able to remember
How well-kept secrets revolve
In the scholastic arena where we
Pretend that all is well in the world.
Childhood is the kingdom where,
Cooties live, and children stare.
Bubble gum sticks to the ceilings above,
And little children speak of love.
Where at recess, there is no care,
Not a worry anywhere.
Children laugh, and sing, and play,
And wonder what the teacher will say.
Childish pranks, and little games,
Funny faces, and ugly names.
Childhood is the Kingdom where,
Children relax, and parents care.
My parents worry what I hear,
What I see, and what I fear.
They worry of guns, or broken glass,
Or that I’l get hurt going to class.
Me seeing things I shouldn’t see,
Or going place I shouldn’t be.
Childhood is the kingdom where,
If we all could, we’d all stay there.
