Goodbye, Hello

Make sure to start the new dawn clean
Do not let the Evil become between
Always make the “Good-byes” your best one
You never know if another “Hello” you’ve won

Though busy time you must be careful of your voice
Make sure of your words of choice
Always make the “Good-byes” your best one
You never know if another “Hello” you’ve won

Validate, validate make sure to appreciate
This is how to support emotions delicate
Always make the “Good-byes” your best one
You never know if another “Hello” you’ve won

Touching, kissing, loving, hugging
Make sure to acknowledge that tiny little tugging
Always make the “Good-byes” your best one
Do you know if another “Hello” you’ve won?

what an interesting theme for a ghazal poem. I have not tried this form in a long time. It sure looks a lot like a kyrielle to me! Very nice, Holly. I enjoyed the read.

According to PS forms, I've written my ghazal and my kyrielle (has a religious refrain), correctly. But, upon research, I think this is actually a kyrielle. Which means what is my kyrielle? And, why does PS state that a kyrielle should have a religious reference?And, a ghazal does not have a particular theme. Just 2 rhyming couplets and a refrain..SM me...Hugs, xxoo Holly

What a great take on greetings and goodbyes, Holly, and the vehicle for this poem is new for me...a positive upbeat message within! I do appreciate your comments on my autumn dodoitsu...I wanted to set the tone of happiness so I included those elements that demonstrate it to me...parades and classical music! We must think alike, u are right! :) gwendolen
