Living

Living life,
a sacred

opportunity to
chase your dreams,

follow your desires,
be truthful to

yourself as each
day shines bright.

Striving

I strive to
live my life,

trying to release
the weight of guilt

locked to my soul,
this parasite

draining my
sense of self.

How I long to
sever the bind

and live my
precious life.

Each Morning (a tanka)

Each morning begins
with a blessing for the day,
thankful for the life
I lead each passing day, and
mindful of lessons brought forth.

Children (a cinquain)

Children.
Curious, open.
Exploring, playing, laughing.
Their words touch hearts.
Free.

Paterson (a cinquain)

City
consumed by floods,
blighted by poverty,
yet its people are resilient,
solid.

Irene's Path (a cinquain)

Irene
came and went, yet
her torrential rains left
behind devastation among
in light.

Hurricane (a cinquain)

Hurricane;
fast, relentless.
Raining, threatening, flooding.
Ruin after the storm.
Tirade.
