Green trees and bushes
Warm gentle breeze, that pushes
Leaves fly in whooshes.
Nature’s beauty never rushes
Peaceful moments, nature hushes

Diphthongs
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
I’m using diphthongs
To coin a phrase and again
Mean meaning or meant.
To express my thoughts so clear
In words that resonate near

A Train’s Tale
Poor Ted the train, chugging along,
Minding his business, singing a song.
When, out of the blue, a fallen tree,
Blocked his path, oh what misery!
With a puff of steam and a loud toot,
Ted tried to move it, oh what a hoot!
But the tree wouldn’t budge, it stood so tall,
Ted needed help, he couldn’t do it all.

Tanka

—————————————————-
Let’s write a Rengay
Create the haikus today
Then we add two more
A Tanka is created
Joy when we work together

A Silent Reverie

—————————————————
All my revere
Is not to be heard or seen
Within the sadness
In the silence, I still feel
Emotions concealed tightly

Serene Night’s Embrace
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
—————————————————-
Moonlight wash o’er me
Dancing in your light I’m free
Brightness felt and seen
In the night, I feel serene
Underneath the stars so bright

Names on My Mind
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
—————————————————-
John, Joan, or a Jane
Willy, Walter, or a Wayne
Some names on my brain
Thinking hard to ascertain
Searching for a name to gain

Gained Insight
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
—————————————————-
Parched in the desert
Spend a fortune for a drink
Of cold crisp water.
Gain insight of the unknown
but it was deep inside you

Thriving
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
—————————————————-
Do more than survive
Embrace the fact you’re alive
Nothing to contrive.
Work hard to thrive, and show your
naysayers that they were wrong

Your Own Beat
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
—————————————————-
Dance to your own beat
Be yourself to all you meet
Here or in the street
Do not take a seat, let life
Guide you to your destiny

Outset
From the outset of this friendship, I knew it was going to be special
A bond so strong and true, it felt celestial
Now I need to cherish and nurture it with care
For your presence in my life is beyond compare
Now that you are in my life, I don’t know what I’d do
If you were no longer with me, my world would be askew
Your laughter, your kindness, light up my every day
I’ll treasure our friendship in every single way

Hereditary
Hereditary is the word some fear
For it carries the weight of the past
A legacy of triumph or despair
Passed down from generation to generation
It holds the power to shape our lives
In ways we may not fully comprehend
Yet within its grasp lies potential
For growth, for change, for understanding
Embrace the hereditary with knowledge
Seek to break the chains of negativity
And pave the way for a brighter future
Where hereditary holds promise, not fear
MAD 9/29/24
Caution
I have been told that I have a lot of patience
But even if I do, there is only so much I can take
So, take caution with your words and actions
For even the patient have their limits, make no mistake

Spirits

Spirits lift us up
Or they will tear us all down
Be ever cautious
You might end up facedown,
Choose wisely, my friend, choose well…

Wasting
https://empathmuch.wordpress.com/
————-
Talons grab at me
Razor sharp ripping my flesh
What of me is left?
How much more can I give, till
I waste away to nothing???
