Tune-Up

two cinquains, one reversed

accord harmonious a cappella choir each soul sings alone, together sweet sound aligned synchronized with the same pow’r Source like a well-oiled machine all parts on task in sync

inspired by Psalm 133 1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! 2 It is like the precious oil upon the head, running down on the beard, the beard of Aaron, running down on the edge of his garments. 3 It is like the dew of Hermon, descending upon the mountains of Zion; for there the LORD commanded the blessing— life forevermore.

Did a bit of an edit here in 2026, thank you PDA, for commenting. 24 years later, I realize, I've been at poetry longer than I thought.

Thank you, Carol. I believe you are still around at PS. I don't get around as much at 82 as I did back in 2011. Did an edit on this piece and realized how unthankful I was for comments from beloved poets like you.
