April #AtoZChallenge and #PoetryMonth
1. To celebrate my appreciation of life
2. To experience the process of writing linked poetry, a form of Japanese renshi
3. To give thanks for and better appreciate a life well-lived.
The flowers are a colorful bonus for the #AtoZChallenge

eXPRESS THE LONGINGS
Is youth anymore memorable than current times? For myself, I prefer to continue making memories rather than sitting back and reveling in the playful days gone by. Every once in a while, though, it is fun to reminisce.
Paris
in the ‘70’s inspired
you
to express
the
longings deep within
To
hear the music that your soul played
Whenever
spirits craved
Encouragement
Euphoria
filled the air as you
Strolled
the boulevards
and
Champs Élysée,
Searching
Diamonds
were not treasures worth
your
heart strings, in a place
where
wine
and
chocolate
Co-exist
