Day 30-My Choice-2024

 Day 30-My Choice-2024

Writing poems frees my mind
To finding rhyming words in kind
Sometimes I write funny
Sometimes sublime
All I know is, I love my Honey
He’s been in the hospital four weeks now
I want him home, don’t know the how
He’s getting better day by day
As the Lord doth allow
April ends, and suddenly it’s May
Please think of our trials, as we go along
How we can grow in our faith in God
I know we will be blessed in the end
My prayers to Heaven as a song
The Iron Rod we cannot rend!

Husband healing in the Hospital
Every day he gets better
Always prayerful each day
Loving his memory of our love
It is a trial, but we have our faith
Never giving up
God is with us each day

My tribute to David McCallum
My heartthrob as they call ‘em
He started playing Illya, a spy
Then ended with Ducky, no lie

Day 18-Rhyme Royal Poem-2024

 Day 18-Rhyme Royal Poem

Rhyming in poetry can be so fun
But counting syllables is a huge chore
I like to write poems and here is one
With both kinds of directions, give me more
Make it work in whatever way, explore
Now I bring it to a close with a rhyme
And then end it with a flourish, sublime!

 Day 17-Spring Senses-2024

Spring
Looks like sunshine peeking through the clouds
Sounds like rain’s pitter-patter on the roof
Feels like a warm enveloping embrace
Smells like honeysuckle on the vine
Tastes like fresh fruit on my tongue
