We Drink Because We’re Poets – We Drink Inspiration – Poetry Prompt #006
Carols by the fire
Electric Yule log ablaze
Singing out of tune
Like the late great Lawrence Welk
We’re drunk on tiny bubbles

Give Love (Sonnet/Anaphora)
Give love so love remains
Give from the heart with every beat
Give from the soul until it sings love’s refrains
Give until you feel passions heat
~
Live like today shall be your last
Live with gusto until hopes are fulfilled
Live until wildest dreams have surpassed
Live until the time that your heart has been stilled
~
Sing your song with most joyous of voice
Sing with the gladness from heaven above
Sing with the song God gave by his choice
Sing all your days with kindness and love
~
Cherish every moment for the gifts that they bring
For they pass by as quickly as an eagle on his wing

Summer Nights – A Kyrielle
Summer nights in sweltering heat.
Crickets chirp ne’er miss a beat.
Cheerful song, devil-may-care.
Like a knife cuts stagnant air.
~
Ribbit goes the frog in pond.
Male to female they both respond.
Spawning tadpole the two a pair.
Like a knife cuts stagnant air.
~
Heat of night does not deter.
Frog and cricket both concur.
Beautiful songs they both do share.
Like a knife cuts stagnant air.

Welcome Spring

Welcome sight the breath of spring,
Air so clear, air so clean,
Though we claim the cloudless sky,
It floats away regardless how we try.
From Heaven above to earth below,
We only see what Mother Nature will show.
She plays on emotion- the sun so warm and bright,
Sinks below horizon- we hold with all our might.
To no avail we say goodbye to the day,
Not to have it any other way,
Tomorrow will come and a new day will dawn,
Today is here and yesterday is gone,
Sun comes up as it always has done,
The birds will awake and greet us with song,
Renewal of soul does their singing bring,
As we welcome in a breath of spring.
