HAIKU for November 22, 2024

Nine birds on a fence

Taking rest by flooded fields

Cattle not in sight

CINQUAIN for November 22, 2024

Seamstress

Quick at her work

Needle and thread

Fabricates with creative flow

Stitches

LANDAY for November 22, 2024

She was aloof as she walked by in front of strangers

Deep inside I knew that she loved me

PRAYER POEM

I look for the presence of Christ

Feel safe when He is with me

Problems disappear and work is done

How delightful this can be

He wants me in His Father’s kingdom

Asks me to help carry the cross

What a wonderful gift to be offered

Failure to act would be such a loss

Joy comes from being with Him,

Quietly walking hand-in-hand

Not seeking or expecting fanfare,

Parade or marching band

Recognition comes at the end of day

My profound thanks given as I pray

Stanislaus Kuperski the Firski ^

STANSKI

The little lady hobbled

Out to the mail box

The rural carrier was

Just up the road

He had stopped and

Her step was

A little livelier

Than usual

She got there and

Pulled the lid up,

Lowered the red flag

Her box was half-full

She scurried back

To the house and

Began sorting

The stack:

Advertising

Letters requesting money

Some bills and to her thrill

A few letters

These were unexpected

But meant so much to her

She savored them

Read them

Then re-read them

Then set them aside

The day seemed brighter

She discarded most of the rest

Went to the kitchen

To prepare lunch

Cyrus, her husband

Would be home soon
