Short Intersperse Poems

Come
what do you
see
         take
one breath
               then
tell 
me
         or
           write
             it
down
use
        mainly
           nouns
intersperse
a
         thought-pause
easy
            for me
I
only
        speak
                  English
you
see!...

A poet, when writing a verse
Should into her feelings immerse
For she won’t survive
If she tries to deprive
What she writes of what might be adverse.

Though, of course, she just might intersperse

Certain thoughts that contrive
To cause damage to thrive
But to out and out lie would be worse....

 "There are no passengers on spaceship Earth. We are all crew"- 
 Marshall McLuhan
              
 
 Spaceships explore the universe
  On voyages light years away
 Galactic wonders so diverse
  Spaceships explore the universe
 Where twinkle of stars intersperse
  With new planets seen day by day
 Spaceships explore the universe
  On voyages light years away...

Elohim, omnipotent power
Dominion over the universe
Every little bird and flower
Honor Him over the earth disperse
Their songs and blossoms intersperse

Alpha and Omega, Beginning
And the End, Ancient of Days is He
Why does man keep on his heels spinning
When a Savior did from beginning foresee
The Word would live with men and set free  

Inspired by Brian Strand's Contest # 225
Ten lines, English Quintain, no set meter...

SPRING MEMORY

Snow fades fast like a princess removing her diadeM
Periwinkles and wisterias soon multiply everywherE
Rays of sunshine intersperse with rosebuds that blooM
Invigorating blades blush with dewdrop-sun blaze combO 
New plants reveal the handiwork of the Master DesigneR
Greenery refreshes and reminds it's Springtime heavenlY.
