Short Low Spirits Poems

Cry tears until you've none to make.
Do be true to yourself, never a fake.
Live like the world is yours to take,
For your sake, for your sake.

Keep your anger low in a rift.
Sing your sorrows until they drift.
Smile until your low spirits lift.
Life is a gift, life is a gift....

Wife was feeling neglected and bored.
Hubby hugged her. Her low spirits soared.  
     She cooed, “Let’s go to bed.”

Soon she came back buck-naked and bold
with a meal. Such a sight to behold!
     Hubby said, “Lunch can wait.”
     When he went for the bait,
She said, “Not now~~your food would get cold.”

A clump of dried leaves from frail
limbs I failed to nurture,

an unfulfilled goal,
and the Love I'll always keep
even after the passing
are these propitious testaments 
I can't trade for resentments

Blue is labelled a moody color of low spirits
but so many beautiful things are of this hue.
Like wavy oceans with streaks of silver that fuel us.
Cornflower-iris -prairie bells garnishing our hearts
the blue gaze of newborns harboring the purist love
a robin's egg that will soon turn into nestled song
sapphire skies that bring us closer to our god
keeping galaxies and pink granite dreams aloft.

Blue is not a hue of the down and lowly,
but a splash of peace-tranquility and hope....
