Now, rest.

HEART WITH EYESCinquain # 29: Love’s Sight

Some say
That love is blind.
Not so. Instead I find
True love seeks out and focuses
On good.

WILLOW TREE - creditsCinquain # 28: Wake-Up Call

Morning —
Bird songs ascend
Across the fragrant air.
Sunlight bounces off dew-kissed lawn.
Wake up.

Cinqain # 26: Flash!

Lightning:
It zigs; it zags
To earth from sky. But wait —
The flash goes up, not down I’ve learned.
Surprise!

NaPoWriMo 2016 – Day 25

Today, I couldn’t decide between two possibilities for my theme. So I decided to give you both versions.  You can decide if you like one better than the other.

Cinquain # 25: Smooch Smooch; Smack Smack

(Version A)

Kisses
Make life sweeter.
Best from lips of lovers.
But if they are not around, try
Hershey’s.

♥ ♥ ♥

(Version B)

Hershey’s
Candy kisses:
Tiny morsels of love
Wrapped in shiny silver with a
Pull string.

In tune.

NaPoWriMo 2016 – Day 18

I know. This one’s a little on the side of the ridiculous. But what can I say? The picture inspired me.

Cinquain # 18: Sorry, Mr. Dickens

Charles wrote
A Tale of Two
Cities. I don’t like it.
I like The Tale of Two Tails
Instead.

Borrowed lumens,
Touching darkened corners
With cooling light reflected from
Hot sun.

LOVERS - SILCinquain # 15: Love’s Language

Lovers
Speak a language
Only they can translate:
A look, a smile, a quiet sigh
Says all.

I went today.
Is he my friend or foe?
He fixed my tooth but STRAINED my nerves.
Not sure.
