Chain of Choka

Time is fast or slow A fine ticking illusion We know it ticks just the same Colors in the sky Born by sunrise or sunset Stay in memory both ways Mysterious love Can leave so many questions Or reassurance with none Music moves the soul In a dance of happiness Or re-igniting sorrow Laughter is healing Sharing it is amplified In a humorous duet Heidi Sands 2/24/22

Heidi, so interesting. I am not familiar with the Choka form you have made it look quite easy. I love the "chain" of Time, Colors, Mystery, Music and Laughter~a recipe for life! Lovely. :Paulette P.S. I am going to try writing in Choka form myself.
