Flotsam

float flames, fastened fears
frittered frail, float falcons
flip fingers, flip fortunes

funneled faiths, fresh fabrics
floats freedom, forgone fears
firmament folds, follies found

Fears

I live on the edge of the fears

Suitable or unsuitable

Worth taking

Or irrelevant.

HAIKU: I LIVED WITH MY FEARS

By Charles Robert Lindholm

I’ve lived with my fears

Let Me Help You Cry

Let Me Help You Cry

The raging storm inside you that you fear

Will drown you in a flood of tears

If you ever let your feelings show

There’s nowhere else for it to go.

I know you’re brave and I know you’re strong

But you’ve been treading water far too long.

Sailed

that ship

has sailed now

Lines Of Life

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lines, i was born with
on the inside of palms
holding my fears and joy

Queen of refugees

What made her smile what made her day . What did she see where there was  only waste and dismay. This Queen of refugees what took her mind and made her pleased.

A friend, a lover that she had thought she’d lost? A child even, wars demand such a high cost. Something in this veil of tears relieved her pain and soothed her fears .

From the depths of deep despair she found something, someone for whom she cared. A sudden joy crossed her face and a smile exploded spreading a fall out of pure grace . What did she see what was her gift from God that lightened up this wasteland where starving refugees trod.

That is something we shall never know and I thank God that she had that moments glow. Such regal beauty in her face , may she fair well in God’s good grace.

A mighty fall..

Once there lived a lion, strong and proud
King of the jungle, his name was never spelt loud
He thought he had conquered all his fears
That was before he opened up his tears
