Headlines

I search for harmony fixes in news headlines
                         hoping to read upbeat news to my heart and mind
                  
Such attitude feeding poems are hard to find

Humane acts lay mute beneath dramatic news impacts ~
                         focused news is not something hope and faith attract
             
I wish to embrace the lovingness of mankind 
                         not incessant blue news stating it has declined

This is a good one. I couldn't really make this work well but tried it anyway. There is always the chance the muse will lead and find you a fine poem like this one. Blessings to you, Gina
