In the elder days
They abandoned better ways
And entered hell’s maze
No one entered in
To ask forgiveness for sin
To again begin
All good forsaking
Memories were left standing
And children weeping
In our own blind way
Do we do better today?
And what do we say?
Note: This poem is comprised of four haikus running along one theme . . . Hope you enjoy. Blessings to one and all!
Great words Jonathan and the picture too is as if no one has ever ventured.
Thank you, Kamal… This time I actually attempted writing a poem about the picture instead of simply finding a picture to go along with my poem. In other words, the picture came first, then the poem.
Yes thought so Jonathan. Welcome and you wrote it so well.
Challenged yourself again, I see. Well done, Johnathan.

Yes, actually I did…. This time I actually attempted writing a poem about the picture instead of simply finding a picture to go along with my poem. In other words, the picture came first, then the poem. I think it worked.
It sure did! XxX
Beautiful!
Thank you!
You’re welcome.
It’s fun playing with poetic structure, isn’t it? Every so often, I enjoy composing ideas and even stories in verse.
Yes, it certainly is, and it’s good to challenge yourself … which I don’t do nearly as often as I should! 😉
