MENTAL LOCK-UP HAIKU
(Maybe some repeats of earlier work)
–
Pushing it too much?
Recognizing I’m a wolf…
Taking advantage.
–
FOR MARY:
A lonesome cougar,
Cunning in her ramblings…
Into my former room!
–
Stubby pencil sings
Recording impressions new…
Singing golf pencils!
–
Common diagnoses,
Fellowship in pain/struggle…
This group comforts all.
–
Sitting at room’s door,
After houfrs writing verse…
Just inside the line!
–
Spirit’s forgotten
But by one or two Christians…
Suggested mantras.
–
Ditty singing heard.
“Nicole” wanted a sample…
Made one up…for her!
–
Ten minute shower
Shortened yet to five…
Cold water assets!
–
Every morn anew—
Yesterday’ mistakes are gone…
Possibilities!!!!!
–
If staying two weeks,
Would ask Doctor “Siraco”
To visit or call.
(For encouragement)
–
“Renee” encouraged
Her circle, including me…
God’s love in action!
–
Some of us go back,
To apartments full of pain…
Can they grow at all?
