Illness…religion
One thing brings out the other
Prayers for better health
Sickness shows the frailty
That only Heaven can cure

Quiet At Sunrise (Haiku)

Daybreak’s very first moment
Peaceful as it gets

The passage of time
Only man feels its effects
Because he watches

Imagination
Imagination is…
Inspiration for the painter’s brush,
Muse for the writer’s quill,
Angst for the actor’s role,
Gas for the engine of invention,
Irreverence to the twisted of mind,
Nuance for the singers song,
Ability for those challenged,
Tenacity in the hearts of the weak,
Ingenuity in the hands of the creative,
Omniscience in the eyes of the faithful,
Nobility in the lives of the insignificant,
…And so much more.

Modern Art Skyline (Tanka)
Modern art skyline
From the brush of Picasso
A true masterpiece
Painted in antiquity
It is irreplaceable

Carrying the Instrument
Carrying the instrument of your own death
Jeering crowds spitting and taunting as you go
Forgive them Father for they know not what they do
Cried with sincerity for these misguided souls
Even in this ultimate humiliation
Your faith never faltered
And by that we have been saved
…How could you not love Him
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Suspicion (Acrostic)
Scent of musk
Undulating in my nostrils,
Somehow I know it’s not mine.
Pretend that you have been faithful,
Infidelity is so unbecoming on you.
Cautious smiles flirt across your face.
I know that you know that I know the truth;
Only denial seems much less painful.
Now for the encore.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
