#Quadrille: For I am a Poet
“have i gone mad?
im afraid so, but let me tell you something, the best people usualy are.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
Once I peeled back layers
of who I thought I was
I found my true heart’s calling
in cooing of mourning doves
and a cloudless azure sky.
For I am a poet,
an observer in this world
I write fanciful words
with wings unfurled.

#American Sentence Sunday: Hope in Blue Skies
Mesa,AZ
Dark clouds move on revealing a crisp dawn as birds sing to hopeful skies.
©2020 Linda Lee Lyberg
Author’s Note: The rules of an American Sentence are very simple. The poem is one sentence, 17 syllables long. It was invented by Allen Ginsberg because he felt that haiku didn’t work as well in English.

#Tanka: Small Miracles
Mesa, AZ
my heart beats in sync
to the thrasher’s melody
embracing nature
small miracles abounding
in a garden grown with love

The Air Sings
Mesa,AZ
The air sings to me of spring
as life’s mystery takes wing
In my untamed raucous garden
a sprout of delicate nasturtium seed,
the hardy stately dandelion weeds,
The bud of a fresh pruned rose
riotous wildflowers delight honeybees
fragrant fruit on the lemon tree
Along the grey garden wall
the snail vine lazily creeping
while baby lizards are leaping
The birth of a butterfly, new beginnings
as they all play their part in the melody
that rings out from the budding trees
It’s spring, It’s spring, It’s spring!
