This Miracle (Cinquain)

His grace

Unchained the grip

Forgiveness flowing free

His Love and Mercy's miracle

....Is me.

Roses

Roses
Enchanting sight
Can mesmerize the eye
Soft satin petals hiding well
...the thorns.

The Best Way to Live

Old folks say the best way to live
Is when love, you learn to give
And for those who have somehow hurt you
For your own sake, forgive.

Impotent (Naani)

Bawdy language
Dressed in sterile verse
Nullifies its worth and track
Ends in a hallow cul-de-sac.

Unforgiveness

To not forgive is bitter root

That grows with enveloping tendrils

That grasp the heart and fruit

Therein distress of soul and ill will.

That's Write (Cinquain)

Weaving
Laced vivid words
Like dreams coloring life
Thoughts painted on paper canvas
...A poem.

Greed (Cinquain)

Vultures
Perched in office
Feed on bloated paychecks
Decayed people not carrion yet
Fight back.

Elections (Naani form)

Choices make or break
A country's life at stake
Votes when sold like merchandise
The contract signed, a nation's demise.

Beautiful

Beauty of face is fleeting
But the mystery of a brilliant mind,
Engaging.

Beauty of the heart is gold
Its value increases with age,
Fulfilling.
